Death Certificates

Certifed copies of the Certificate of Death are official, legal documents issued by the Health Department or Vital Statistics Office where the death occurs.  They are used to prove the death legally where estate matters are of concern.   We suggest consulting Legal Counsel or a Financial Planner for the exact number you think you may need.
