Document Retrieval
New York Document Retrieval & Certified Copy Services
Missing an official record you need for your next step? Apostille & Translations assists with requests for marriage records, divorce judgments, and recorded property deeds. We review requests in New York City, Nassau County, and nearby New York counties, subject to the issuing office's procedures and record availability.
Documents We Help Obtain
Marriage records
Request assistance with certified marriage records and, where available and appropriate, extended certificates for international use. We review the record location and the issuing office's requirements before proceeding.
Divorce judgments
Request help obtaining a certified judgment of divorce. Useful starting details include the county, approximate year, parties' names, and index number if known. The record holder's access requirements must be satisfied.
Property deeds
Request a regular or certified copy of a recorded deed. Provide the property address, county, and any recording reference you have. Obtaining a deed copy does not change property ownership.
Other documents
Need a different record? Contact us for a case-by-case review. Availability is not confirmed until we assess the request.
Retrieval, Apostille, and Translation in One Coordinated Request
If your record is intended for use abroad, tell us the destination country and receiving organization's instructions. We can also review your need for apostille processing or certified translation and quote those services separately. The required document version and additional steps depend on the record and intended use.
How Document Retrieval Works
Tell us which record you need, where it is held, and your deadline.
We review availability, eligibility, identification and authorization requirements, government charges, and our service fee.
Once you approve the quote and supply the required paperwork, we assist with the permitted submission or collection process and arrange delivery.
Some offices may require identification, a notarized authorization, or a power of attorney. We will explain the requirements applicable to your request before proceeding.
Pricing and Timing
Each request is quoted individually. The quote will explain our service fee and applicable government, delivery, or additional processing charges. Record availability and issuing-office processing determine the timeline. Tell us your deadline so we can assess what is feasible.
