Re: Changing a child's last name
There is a relatively simple legal procedure for changing a name by filing a Petition and following the law to obtain a Court Order. However, your question suggests that what you might really need might be something more, like a judicial determination of paternity, custody order and child support order. You should definitely consult with an attorney.
