Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
name change
my son of 15 who has been adopted by his step father and changed the sons name would like to have my name (his original name)back. especially since the marriage of 4 years between his mother and the adopted step parent has ended.Is this possible, and can I the birth father assist him in anyway?

Re: name change
The mother can petition the court for a name change, or when the boy is 18 he can petition for the change. The birth father has no rights if the step father adopted the boy.
