Arizona Public Divorce Records

By Ben Kingsley


If you are looking for the records of a Divorce in Arizona, you can head to the specific county Clerk of Court that made the divorce official. If you do not know the exact county, you may refer to the Vital Records Office and they will assist you in locating the county in-charge of the record you are looking for. Once you locate the exact county, you can file for a request there and you will receive the records in less than two hours. If you mail or fax your request, the return period will take about two to three weeks.

A divorce document is the only legal document that supports an occurrence of a divorce. If you are planning of getting married in the near future but have gone through a divorce in the past, you will be required to present a divorce document before you are granted a marriage license. You may also want to check your future lifetime partner if he or she has gone through the same process as well in the past. It is possible that your partner may feel distrusted if you ask for a proof of an event that they want to forget. To refrain from causing such negative feeling, you can do it secretly without them knowing it because it is legally allowed to view their documents.

To search for a divorce record, it is vital that you can provide a full name and the year and place where the divorce took place. If you can provide additional information, the faster it will be to obtain the records. Make sure that the pieces of information you provide are accurate so that the right record will found.

When you receive the files that you requested for, check if the divorce certificate and the divorce decree are there. A divorce certificate is a file that contains some basic details like the names of the ex-husband and ex-wife, their address, and when and where the divorce took place. A divorce decree, on the other hand, contains sensitive pieces of information that are not given to just anyone except to the spouses, their attorneys, and those that have the consent of the court. The decree includes details about the child custody, visitation rights, distribution of assets and debts, and the likes. Unless these issues are settled, a decree will not be finalized.

You can also get the records from online search tools. There are free search tools and paid search tools. Regardless of what kind of search tool you are going to use, you will be provided with the basic details of a divorce document that resembles what a divorce certificate contains.

Are Divorce Records Public? Yes, they are. Any person can submit a request for the records to the appropriate government office in-charge of maintaining them. A divorce that is granted in a certain county or state is and will be accepted in all the other states. Although they are open to public, there are laws that protect the privacy of the owner of the records. The records cannot be used to defame, embarrass, blackmail, and damage the reputation of a person. Anyone caught violating will be punished accordingly.
