Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky

Re: Opening Original Birth Certificate

Hello. It will be necessary

for you to go to Kentucky.

Generally, there is an

emerging trend where adoptees

are being allowed to view

their original birth records.

I imagine that a court would have to be shown some

compelling reason why the

sealed records should be

unsealed. You certainly should contact an attorney in

Kentucky because the rules

generally differ from state

to state and my statements

here are based upon a knowledge of Illinois law. You may want to call the bar associations in either Louisville or Lexington

for the fastest results. I

hope my answer helps.
