Indiana Divorce Records
Divorce Records in Indiana - Each state mandates the divorces that are filed in their jurisdiction. Therefore, Indiana divorce records are maintained by that state. Some states hold the records in two locations, state and local. At the state level, the records will be held at a state repository. At the local level, the records are held at the local county courthouse.
All searches for divorce records in Indiana should begin at the local courthouse where the petition for divorce was filed. If this is unknown, then an individual search of each county will have to take place. Additionally, a search can be conducted at the state repository, if one exists. However, only uncertified copies of divorce decrees will be issued from the state office.
Divorce records typically include the full names of both individuals, the dates of the filing and of the finalization, the county in which the divorce petition was filed, and a certificate number. The maiden name of the wife is usually included as well. Some states will even include the number of children under the age of eighteen at the time of the divorce.
If you are searching for divorce records, the more information that you can provide, the easier the search will be. Typically, divorce records are filed under the husband�s name. Therefore, if you have little information to go on, you can conduct a search for past and present spouses of the husband. Not only will this turn up the names of any spouses, but also, it usually includes the names of the counties where any divorces were filed.
To conduct a successful search for divorce records, complete the following steps:
1. Print or type each name and address clearly to avoid confusion. This includes the full name of both the husband and the wife. The maiden name should be included for the wife.
2. Keep your request brief and to the point.
3. Limit your request to one document.
4. Include the full names of the individuals, including nicknames and alternate spellings that may have been used.
5. Include the full address of the individual at the time of the divorce, including street, city or town, and state. If you know the county in which the divorce took place, include that as well.
6. Include the date that the divorce was finalized. If you do not have this piece of information available, include a time frame for the search. Generally, it is best to specify a short span of years for an unknown year search. You can always expand the number of years that you search, and a shorter span will lead to a shorter search. You can expect to pay an additional fee for searches such as this that require more effort.
7. Include contact information where you can be reached in the event that more information is required. Include a daytime, as well as an evening telephone number. You may also include a fax number or an e-mail address.
8. You should include your relationship to the individual�s listed in your search request.
9. You should include the purpose of your request.
10. Print your name clearly and sign your request. Some states may also require additional identifying information on you as well, including a driver�s license number.
11. Include a SASE, or self addressed stamped envelope with your request for a speedier delivery.
12. Include the date that you mail your request with your correspondence.
