Quick Access To Divorce Records Ohio

By Ben Kingsley


Divorce Records Ohio is maintained at each of the state's county Clerk of Court. If you are unsure which county has the file that you want to secure, visit the state's Office of Vital Statistics. They will help you locate the correct county but not give you the file itself.

Divorce records are considered as public records. Therefore, any member of the general public has the right to place a request for them. A person may request his or her own records to check if there are any errors in the included pieces of information. Requesting the records of another person is also allowed but only the basic pieces of information will be given to the requestor. If the record is used improperly, like blackmailing, appropriate punishments will be imposed by the court on violators.

Before marrying your special someone, make sure that he or she is not involved in another marriage because that would get you in trouble in the near future. You need not worry about hurting your partner's feelings for conducting a background check on them because you can perform it without asking for their permission. And if you have gone through a divorce and want to marry again, you need to present your divorce record upon applying for a marriage license.

The time it takes to get a record will depend on the amount of information the requestor provides. Usually it takes about two to three weeks. Providing a full name of either of the couple is usually enough to start a search. But providing additional information will make the search process faster because the search results will be narrowed down. A certain amount of fee is also required to get the record. The fee depends on which county has them and it is non-refundable even if the requested record is not found.

Divorce files can also be obtained from online search tools. There are those that store and accept requests for the files. If you go over the Internet, there are several of such search tools. Unfortunately, not each one is a credible source. To assess the credibility of a source, check out what other users are saying about the pieces of information that they were provided with.

There are two kinds of service providers that can get you the documents you need: paid service providers and free service providers. With the first kind, you will get a lot of valuable pieces of information while the second one will only get you the basic ones. If you choose the second kind, you will gain access to the names of the groom and the wife, the date when they got married and when they got divorced, and then where the two events occurred. Choose service providers that will allow you to do conduct a nationwide Divorce Records Search if you are not aware where exactly they are kept.
