To retrieve a Cook County Divorce, Law or Chancery Case/Lawsuit Record requires a 2-step process. These records are not stored at the courthouse, only the index is. If a case is found in the index, the records will be transferred from an off site storage facility for viewing on another day. This process can take a few weeks
Fee if I find the record you requested: $35.00
Fee if I don’t find the record after a thorough search: $10.00
Please include the names of the parties involved in the lawsuit and the approximate year(s) it took place. If you only know one parties' name, include that and what you know about the case (ex: "John Smith sued his unknown employer around 1892" or "Jane Doe divorced her unknown husband before 1930") Please include any other information that you think may be beneficial for me to locate the case in the index. Thank you.
