Florida Divorce Records And Legal Documents

By Claire Dowell


If you want to get your hands on FL Divorce Records, you can get them at the Florida Office of Vital Statistics, Department of Health. The office started to maintain records of divorce cases in Florida on the 6th of June 1927 until present day. Records of divorce cases that occurred before the 6th of June 1927 can only be obtained at the Clerk of Superior Court of the county where it was finalized.

Members of the general public are given the right to access the records because they are deemed as part of the public domain. You can request your own records and that of other people too. However, it is a bit difficult to get the latter. You have to have a very good reason for getting the records or else, the office of Vital Statistics can reject your request.

Before you can carry out a search, you must secure the correct request form at the Office of Vital Statistics or download it from their official website. Complete the form with necessary details such as the name of the couple, date of divorce, and where the divorce was made official. Do not forget to include your contact details like your name, home address and phone number. Mail your request to the office along with a valid ID and appropriate fee. If you are unaware where to mail your request, ask the help of the state office and they will forward your request to the correct county on your behalf. There is a fee of $5 for every copy of a divorce file and $4 for additional copies. Fees are not subject to a refund no matter what the outcome of the search process is.

If you have gone through a divorce and you wish to marry another person, you need to acquire your own divorce file. If you cannot present at the time of the application for a marriage license, you will not be granted a license. Without a license, a marriage is considered null and void even if a ceremony took place. So before you decide to marry someone, make sure that you are aware of his or her marital status to avoid running into trouble. Aside from this, you can also use the file as a source of information for the specifics of a divorce case.

Another way to acquire divorce files is by conducting a search through online search tools. There are search tools that have the permission of the court to maintain divorce files and supply them if anyone places a request for them. Sadly, not all of the search tools that can be found on the Internet are genuine. Prior to choosing which search tool to use for your search, run a history check on them first. Gather as much details as you can get about them until you are sure that they are not fooling you to make a quick buck.

Online search tools are categorized into two kinds: fee-based search tools and free search tools. Whichever you choose, you will be granted with Divorce Decrees Public Record but the extent of your access to information will be different. Fee-based search tools can supply you with an extensive amount of information regarding a divorce case. There is also a chance to get your hands on the confidential information. On the other hand, free search tools can do just enough to provide you with a file that has the basic information of a divorce.
