A Common Question the Clients Ask is: Are Divorces Open to the Public and are the Files Public Records?

Generally, the answer is yes but both the divorce, docket, the case files and Decree. There can be exceptions to that. The financial statements are kept separately and are NOT accessible to the public. In the courtroom the divorces are open to the public and there can be exceptions such as when DCF is involved and so forth.
