• Can divorce settlement papers be downloaded online?

Divorce judgement was given in the late 1990s.
We have the settlement number but do not have the judgment papers.
Do we need to approach the same lawyer who was part of the proceedings or can the judgement document be accessed on an online repository?

You need a certified copy of the judgment and not a web copy. So obtain the certified copy through your lawyer or any local lawyer.

You may not find the judgment of the year 1990 online. You may apply for a certified copy of the same as party in person too. You do not have to compulsorily get the copies through advocate only.

You may visit the court office, file a copy application with the details and get them.
