Free Divorce Records California

By Claire Dowell


Some people may find it pleasing to retrieve free California divorce records from state agencies while some are not cut out for the task. In itself, getting public information from state agencies has always been a test of patience. It may even be more than that if you are researching state divorce records from the office of Vital Records of California. For some unknown reason, the number of divorces in the state has not been highly monitored. It being the biggest state with its population also means it has the most number of divorces.

Even though it has not kept track of its divorces, the Freedom of Information Act mandates it to store public records. The California Department of Public Health is responsible for maintaining the central registry of marriages and divorces in the state. The government holds these records as well as commercial record providers online. These providers make it easier by linking, crossing, networking databases with various records that they can make them accessible without difficulty.

The superior court of the county and the recorder's office has the power and authority to provide the original records of the divorce including the decrees and certificates. Therefore you must have at least basic information of the divorce. The public records kept are marriage, divorce, death and birth. The names of the parties, divorce court number and county are documented in the certificate of record.

You can choose from the free and paid services when it comes to acquiring access to California files. They can be found on the internet with huge differences. To get the best result with free services, you have to keep in mind that there are three ways to do it. First, visit the government website and input the name, age and city of the person. Secondly, reconsider why you only need to do a free search. Lastly, prepare yourself for what you will learn. Once these ways have been considered, you can either carry on with your free search or move forward to availing a paid service from any of the records providers present online.

Patience is highly needed when searching for public records. To get the most ideal result, you have to hold the correct resources and significant information. You need to supply the name and date of the parties involved especially when you do not have the case number known.

It is good to make a free divorce records search from a government office when you know how to avail of their services. On the other hand, be aware that choosing the process of going to a records office at the state government can have undesirable results. Apart from waiting for a long time to finish the process, the results may not be as good as you expected it to be. As a result, other options are available such as availing the services of a commercial records provider on the internet. More often than not, better and faster results are obtained through this kind of search compared to personally going to a government office.
