Marriage is not as impeccable as it seems at first. As time goes by, it could erode and transcend into something undesirable. As the renowned author Gillian Flynn of the best-selling book Gone Girl quotes, "Friends see most of each other's flaws. Spouses see every awful last bit." If a couple is not able to meet halfway and reconcile with each other given such flaws and the personality differences, dissolution to that vow is the answer. In the United States, one out of three marriages usually ends up in a divorce.

A divorce decree is a comprehensive account containing all the events that took place during the proceeding. Because a document of divorce is all-inclusive with a person's marital history, it is utilized in a variety of undertakings. For a person who wishes to remarry, such document is requisite. It is also used in extensive background checks especially when the identity and the person's marital record are sussed out.

Aside from extensive background checks, divorce decrees also serve other purposes - remarriage and reinstatement of a woman's maiden name. Protocols observed with regard to the storing, protection and distribution of divorce registers vary from one state to another. In Colorado, documents of divorces that occurred from 1851 to 1939 and those from 1968 till the present time are housed in the state's primary repository which is the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. Divorces that transpired from 1940 to 1967, on the other hand, are obtainable only through the Office of the County Clerk in the county where the divorce was filed and granted.

Getting ahold of Colorado divorce public record free of complex methodology begins with the completion of an application form which can be acquired directly from the said department's office or downloaded through their website. This form must be filled out in its entirety with all the necessary details - the husband and the wife's complete names, the wife's maiden name, as well as the date and the county where the divorce was approved. It is also imperative to indicate your relationship to the divorcees and your purpose for procuring such crucial document. A fee of $17 must be paid and must be submitted along with the duly completed application form to the department's Office of Vital Records. Please take note that regardless if the divorce decree you filed an entreaty for is not found, the $17 fee is non-refundable as it retains to be payment for the search itself. Thus it is helpful if you can provide as much information as you can about the event to narrow the searches and increase the chances of locating the divorce record you need.

Although anyone in the general public has the right to request any public records they need as per the Public Records Law and the Freedom of Information Act of 1966, not all information in a document of marriage dissolution is revealed. The purpose of this is to protect the divorcees. Unless the requester is involved in the event or the intention for the perusal is for criminal background investigations, details such as the reason for the divorce, division of the assets, and alimony and custody of a child may be divulged. As such, indicating as to how you are related with the individuals stated in the record is imperative.

Because of the emergence of the Internet, the way records are procured has indeed taken a giant leap. Today, anyone who wishes to procure a copy of any public register can do so by performing quick searches in government databases. Private repositories are also available should one wish to mitigate the hassle when procurement is done through the traditional method. By exploiting these approaches through available resources, free divorce records can be obtained instantaneously while saving time and effort as well as money.
