As with every vital record, the information that can be obtained through divorce records varies from state to state. By doing some research online the researcher can find out and identify the differences among the specifics of divorce records kept by repositories in different states. The State of New York has its specifics too.
The New York State maintains separate databases listing two different types of divorce records: divorce decrees and divorce certificates. Divorce decree is a document issued by the court that defines the terms and conditions of a particular divorce that took place. New York divorce record in the form of divorce decree must contain the signature of the judge and it is filed with the County Clerk of the county where the decree was issued, normally the county of the plaintiff's residence. In case the divorce was granted before January 1, 1963, the divorce decree is the only type of document available in New York State jurisdictions to confirm someone was divorced.
The second type of New York divorce record may be a divorce certificate filed with the New York State Department of Health. This type of document exists for the divorces that were granted by the New York judges in different jurisdictions starting January 1, 1963. The New York divorce certificate contains basic information about spouses (husband and wife), the date the marriage ended and the place of termination.
According to the type of divorce record, there are two different types of repositories of divorce records in the State of New York. A copy of a divorce record in the form of a divorce decree may be obtained through the Clerk's Office of the respective county. Considering there are 62 counties in the State of New York, each acting as a separate repository of public records of the kind, investigator may have hard times searching all of them manually. So, it can make sense to outsource the search from public records information broker or use this online public record search tool to narrow your search.
If you are sure you are searching either specifically for a record in the form of a divorce certificate, or for information about a couple's divorce that took place before January 1, 1963, your task becomes much easier, for there is only one centralized repository for this type of divorce records in the State of New York. A copy of a divorce record in the form of divorce certificate may be obtained from the New York State Department of Health Vital Records Office.
Divorce files in the State of New York are sealed documents, which means their contents can be disclosed in full only to the plaintiff, defendant or attorneys of record. To review a divorce file that you are not a party to you must produce either a court order or a notarized statement from one of the litigants.
If you experience problems researching divorce records in New York, it might have sense to choose first searching public marriage records as a departure point allowing restore lacking details, which would make further research better narrowed.
It is also important to realize that be it for personal purpose or for employment background check or whatever else you research public records in the state of New York, as investigator you should be aware that unauthorized use, theft, trespass or illegal access to, or tampering with or illegal duplication any of the records available online, constitutes violation of the Penal Law of the State of New York.
