Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan
When I filed for divorce with my ex I said it was fine to change my name back to my maiden name but now I do not want to, it is a big hassle to change all the documents and things to a new name. Can I keep using my married name even if my divorce papers say my maiden name is restored?

I do not know if you have to change your name now. However, as a practical matter, just keep using your old name if you like. Who is going to complain?
