    You might not be legally married, no. It will depend on whether your divorce was ever finalized.

    Hire a lawyer and start digging up records.

    It was hard to follow the time line that you laid out in your question. You say you don't have a divorce certificate, but did you actually go and file for one?

    More details would be helpful.

    Good luck.

    i filed for divorce to my first wife in 2004, the last thing i got was a separation agreement, my lawyer said it was all done and he was just waiting for the courts to do a search on whether the divorce was filed somewhere else or not. this was in 2007. i did not receive a divorce certificate and as far as i know its probably because i still owe him 400 dollars. i got married again in 2005.

    Divorce records are public domain a quick call can say when your Divorce was final if at all. Contact the county records in county Divorce was filed
