About L. Chere
L. Chere Trigg built a legal foundation on a mix of liberal arts and property law. She earned a B.A. in English from Talladega College in 1997, then a J.D. from Southern University Law Center in 2001. She followed that with an LL.M. in Real Property Development from the University of Miami School of Law in 2002. The sequence shows an early decision to pair broad analytical training with a technical specialization in real estate law.
Her career has included both transactional and firm-side work. She is a shareholder at Siegfried Rivera, where she handles matters that touch on commercial real estate, land use, and related corporate issues. Colleagues describe her as methodical in contract drafting and attentive during negotiations. She applies the LL.M. training to complex property deals and closing processes, and she routinely works with title questions and regulatory requirements.
Trigg is admitted to practice in Florida and Georgia. She is active in bar organizations, holding memberships in the American Bar Association, The Florida Bar, the Georgia State Bar and the Miami-Dade County Bar Association. Those ties keep her current with changes in state rules and regional practice trends. She also engages with local lawyers through the Miami-Dade bar, which she uses as a forum for peer exchange and continuing education.
At Siegfried Rivera she occupies a leadership role as a shareholder. Her position involves supervising transactions, advising corporate clients on property acquisitions and dispositions, and coordinating with lenders and developers. The firm environment calls for both litigation awareness and transactional precision. Trigg balances those demands by prioritizing clear contracts and practical risk assessments for clients.
Her work spans commercial transactions and development projects. She prepares purchase and sale agreements, reviews title and survey issues, and assists clients with due diligence tied to financing and entitlement conditions. The LL.M. in Real Property Development informs her approach to zoning and permitting questions during the pre-closing phase. When disputes arise, she consults on contractual remedies and closing alternatives rather than pursuing litigation as a first step.
Outside the office she stays engaged in professional circles. Membership in national and state bar groups provides continuing legal education and a network for referrals. She has built a practice that connects transactional real estate work with the practicalities of development and financing. She currently practices at Siegfried Rivera and concentrates on commercial real estate, land use, and related corporate matters.
