Where can you find public divorce records?

Answer 1

Hi

if you would like divorce records online, you'll need a site that displays results before payment, as i don't believe that there are any free search sites.

It will also need to be legit.

try it, it allows search first!

Answer 2

You must be more specific in this question. The subject is W-A-Y too broad a question to answer specifically. Many public records are available on-line and many more are available by just going to the appropriate government offices and filing an information request under the Freedom of Information Act. However, among the many records gathered by federal, state and local governments, some are not open to the public for viewing unless you have the proper authorization and "need to know."

Answer 3

In most states you'll need to contact the Vital Records Department (or equivalent). The government website should have instructions on what needs to be done to obtain the divorce record. Normally you'll need to fill out a form and pay a small fee.

Some states do make divorce records available online in a search-able database.

Another option is to hire a 3rd party to obtain the records for you. A simple internet search will bring up a list of website businesses you can use.

Answer

Unless you need long distance help, you can go to the court where the divorce was filed and read through the file. Look online for your local Family Court. It is usually found under the name of the county. You can visit that court and request the file. There are usually public copiers available if you see any documents you want for your records.

Answer 4

The place that you need to go to to obtain divorce records is the court house in the county of the divorced couple and request a copy. It is also available through the Clerk of the Circuit Court.

Answer 5

A divorce court can usually be found by looking on your states individual courts website (e.g. New York Courts) which will offer advice on divorce and finding a divorce court. It is often advised to consult with your attorney before going to a divorce court.

Answer 6

There are some jurisdictions that have that information available. For divorce, you should perform an online search using the county, state + county + divorce records. They would not be in the same system as marriage records since a divorce takes place in the county court system.
