Wisconsin Divorce Records

The Vital Records Office of the State of Wisconsin maintains a database starting from 1907 up to the present. Prior to the said year, records are available from the county clerk office where the divorce was granted. As divorce is a confidential matter, the State requires the requester to present a valid government ID to prove their relationship with the parties named in the divorce documents. Records may be obtained from the Vital Records Office for $20.

Those who wish to get hold of divorce certificates in the State must pass the eligibility requirement set by the government including being one of the following individuals: spouse, parents, kids, grandparents and those who plan to marry the divorced person. All documents presented should be valid, as submitting expired documents would cancel the request.

One quick way to get the records or get hold of one is to check out the internet. There are several professional search providers in the internet that offer affordable search based services that one can engage to help them obtain the records that they need.
