Reasons To Change Your Name Legally

There are many reasons to want to legally change a name. Most often our attorneys see a monumental life change that precedes the name change, such as:

  • Divorce
  • Adoption
  • Error (such as a misspelled name on birth certificate)
  • Transgender reassignment surgery

Each of these special circumstances comes with unique needs and requirements. Attorney Peters and her associates can review the facts of your name change request to ensure that you will be able to change your name smoothly and thoroughly.
