I know Fabio commented on some older posts regarding copies of divorce decrees but I need some additional information. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

My friend lives in NY and needs to obtain an original copy of her divorce decree from DR. She has a photocopy of it with all the document numbers and dates that she would need to get the original copy. How can she obtain the original copy from NY?

I thlink everything is available if you go in person and look it up. Failing that hire a lawyer to go get a certified copy. My guess is you have to go the city where it is filed.

Thanks Dr Guy, I know that if she were in the country she would be able to get a copy of it. However, we are looking for a way to get the original copy without her having to travel to DR to get it. Thanks for your reply though.
