It is very easy to get a duplicate birth certificate from the department of vital records.

Regarding insurance, if he refuses, perhaps you could call the provider and see if they will send duplicates. OTHERWISE, I would suggest a demand letter from an attorney. ULTIMATELY, you could file in Court a demand that he provide the card, but I would of course hope you not need to go that far.

We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options.

One of our attorneys can explain the issues and procedures better in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via email. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss your matter in detail.

Please call us directly to discuss the specifics of your matter, or contact my assistant Gina or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule your free 1/2 hour consultation.
