Re: change last name

Resuming use of a prior surname i.e. going back to your maiden name as part of a divorce action is fairly easy if you have your divorce decree. If you don't you need to see the prothonotary to get a copy,

If you are change your last name otherwise its a project. There is advertising and police background checks to do as well as the petition.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
