My husband needed his birth certificate to renew his drivers license. I went online and typed in birth certificates and the first web site was jts and associates who were claiming to be able to get you one for $19.99. After completeing all the information and using my credit card to give them 19.99 they sent me to another web site called Vital Check who charged me $37.00 + $8.00 processing and $16.50 to ship it Federal Express which is the only shipping they use. So now I've spent $61.50 for a birth certificate plus $19.99 to jts and associates for doing absolutely nothing except conecting me to a web site I could have found on my own.
When I contacted jts and associates I received a sarcastic statement telling me perhaps I should read it next time before paying for it. I emailed them three times and asked for my money back but each time they gave me the same song and dance. I ended up telling them they should be sued by every honest citizen they have ever screwed and I'm sure the number is great.

I am curious. Where was your husband born? Outside of the US?
IN the US you just check the states Department of Vital Statistics. Some states charge $7.00 some charge $25.00
