📌 We do not have unrestricted access to vital records.

We follow all state and federal vital records laws.

📌 We cannot obtain modern birth certificates without:

• Signed authorization from the person

• OR proof of direct relationship

• OR a valid Power of Attorney

📌 Power of Attorney must specifically state:

“Authority to obtain vital records.”

For deceased people, only the estate executor or family can request certain records.

📌 Vital Records fees are set by the government.

They are separate from research fees.

📌 Not all records exist or are accessible.

Some historical records were lost, destroyed, or never filed.

We will guide you, but final decisions are made by state offices.
