Skagit County Divorce Records

Divorce records are legal documents that are created to record or relate to the dissolution of a marriage. Divorce records are generally public documents according to Washington Public Records Act § 42.56, unless otherwise restricted by law. They serve as proof of a marriage ending, verification for name changes or social benefits, and can aid geological research. In Skagit County, the Superior Court has jurisdiction over divorce cases, so for information on these records, interested individuals can contact the Clerk of Court or visit their office in person.

An online lookup of divorce records can be done through the Washington Courts Public Case Search on the Odyssey Portal. Information needed to facilitate a divorce record search includes the names of the divorcing parties, the date of the marriage, and the location where the marriage was registered or licensed. To get photocopies or certified copies of the marriage record, individuals can contact the Washington State Department of Health.

Information in a public divorce record includes the names of the former spouses, the case summary, the petition for dissolution, the parenting plan (if a child is involved), and the hearing schedules for the divorce proceedings.
