Florida Divorce Records are maintained by the Florida Vital Records Office. All documents of divorce cases since 1927 are kept at the office along with marriage documents. The documents are sometimes labelled as Dissolution of Marriage. Do not get confused because they are practically the same.

It is the right of any person to submit a request for a divorce file, provided that he or she follows the correct requesting procedure. The Vital Records office requires a request form to be filled out accordingly. Pieces of information such as name of requestor, place of residence, phone details, and stating the intention for requesting a certain file are a must. The completed form is to be given back to the office along with other requirements such as two IDs - a government-issued ID must be one of them - and the corresponding payment. There is a no-refund policy for all payments made even if no file is located.

One of the necessary pieces of information that you need to be able to supply when requesting for a divorce records are the year when the divorce was finalized and which county finalized it. Divorce files are initially filed under a county's Clerk of Courts. Once they are finalized, they are then submitted to the Vital Records office where they are stored along with other public files. If you want to acquire a divorce file but are not aware when it took place and which specific county has it, head directly to the Vital Records office and they will be the one to redirect your request to the exact county who has the files. The office only keeps files from 1927 onwards, which means all files that were filed before that year are only available at the county of Clerk of Court where they were initially filed.

Requesting the documents of other people is permitted, although it depends upon the situation. A person who wants to do a marital history check on their potential lifetime partner is allowed to access his or her partner's documents. This is considered a valid course of action because it will definitely cause some serious problems should it be proven later on in the marriage that one of the couple is officially involved in another marriage.

The records can also be obtained from online service providers. There are a number you can found on the Web but, sadly, not all of them can be trusted. So before jumping on the first one you can find, conduct a quick background check on it and a few more others and find out if they are a reliable source for divorce records or not. One way of doing that is by reading what other users are saying about them.

There are two kinds of search tools you can find online: those that require fees and those that offer Divorce Records Free. Paid search tools are able to supply you with more information compared to the ones that supply the files for free. They can even, depending on the situation, include some of the more personal information. Both kinds supply the basics of a divorce file such as the full names of the couple, their age, where they reside, and when and where the divorce was finalized. Knowing the basics of a divorce file is sufficient enough to prove or disprove the validity of a divorce.
