What civil records are and what information they contain?

Civil court records are all court dockets regarding civil cases. A civil record search is a great way to find out more about a person.

The US justice system divides court cases into two main categories – civil and criminal. Criminal cases concern law offences such as murders, robberies, and other type of felonies. Civil cases regard issues such as marriage and divorce, property transactions, some financial issues and so on. Civil court records originate from court proceedings on a civil trial. Typically a civil court record will contain information about the person involved in the court proceeding (name, address, social security number) and details about the case. For example a divorce record will contain the date of the divorce, the divorcees names and what was the decision of the court.
