alan you're on wdbo go ahead
hey good morning my question is how do i
get a copy of somebody's death
certificate
is it online or
what's the process so alan you get a
death certificate
at the vital statistics office in the
county of death
so if somebody died in orange county
you're going to orange county vital
statistics
they're going to make you fill out a
form and they're going to make you state
what your relationship to that person is
and i think if you put hey he's a
stranger i don't know him he's not
related to me
i don't think they're going to give it
to you i agree yeah
i think you have to show some relation
to that person and they will give it to
you so uh
i can tell you this allen that
occasionally we at the olsen law group
are in orlando
we need to get a copy of a death
certificate from somebody that's
clearly not related to us they will give
it to us as the
as an attorney requesting it but i think
otherwise you have to have some kind of
relationship
to the deceased person to get a copy of
their death certificate as long as you
do
exactly what tom said though it's vital
statistics office of any county
where the person passed away
excellent so if they're listed on the
ladybird lead as the the next owner that
would probably be sufficient backup for
them to
oh my death certificate i'll tell you
what alan that's a great question but
the answer is no
so alan this may be a situation that if
we're talking about you
you may need to come to us or another
attorney to get that death certificate
for you
alan alan great question thank you all
very much
all right so that opens up lines for

chrissy he is reminding me of a
client i had called me this past week
and it was about a ladybird deed so tell
me
so let's just say the the client's name
was greg okay
and greg uh we did a ladybird deed for
greg that states that when he
passes away his home is going to his
girlfriend automatically no probate
required through a ladybird deed
okay now greg has passed away greg's
daughter
is very upset that this house is going
to greg's girlfriend not to greg's
daughter
based on that the girlfriend is calling
me up and saying tom the girlfriend
won't give me a copy of the death
certificate
her daughter the daughter will not give
me a copy of the death certificate
so that i the girlfriend can record it
in the public records
showing that this house now belongs to
me and so i said look
yeah you can't get it you're not you're
the girlfriend of greg but that doesn't
get you a death certificate of greg at
the vital statistics office
but yes you can go through olson law
group we'll get one for you and record
it for you
