Louisiana Divorce Records

To begin, add a divorce record or view a list of locations and resources for Louisiana divorce records.

Divorce records can be vital in many situations, but unfortunately many states such as Louisiana don't consider them to be vital records. That is to say, divorce records aren't maintained by the Louisiana Vital Records Registry.

The only way to find divorce records is to contact the Clerk of Court of the parish where the divorce occurred. Fees and restrictions on these records may vary on a parish by parish basis.

However, one easy solution to this confusing situation is to utilize the internet. Records that might otherwise be difficult to find can often be located in a short amount of time by using internet public records finders.

Louisiana divorce certificates may be available only to those who are named in the divorce and to those with a legal interest. If you need information pertaining to a divorce, or a divorce certificate from Louisiana, you can contact the Clerk of Court in the Parish where the divorce was granted.
