The purpose of this book is to provide the general public some information about name changes. It is a reference manual that should answer basic questions like, "How do I change my name?"
The questions recited in this manual are the more
commonly asked questions of attorneys when a client
first makes contact for the purpose of drafting the
name change documents. Neither this manual nor the
subject matter contained within is in any way a
substitute for legal advice. For legal advice, an
attorney must be consulted. The design of this
manual is elementary and is, by no means, a
comprehensive assessment of a particular legal
discipline. It will, however, allow the reader to
better understand the various aspects of the
process of a Name Change.

Other Uses of This Online Book
It is never recommended that an individual undertake his
or her own representation in such matters as a name change, even though most states do permit
such activity. Any individual who is serious about
resolving a name change issue would want to have capable
legal assistance. Therefore, the reader is urged to
contact a competent attorney who should welcome the fact
that a client is arriving at his or her office with the
information acquired from this manual. In other words, the
reader should be a better informed member of the public by
reading and reviewing the contents of this manual and,
accordingly, should be better prepared to consult an
attorney about the name change process. Read on for a
better understanding of name change matters.
