Re: Desperate for info on name change of children

Hello there --

I would be happy to help you in your efforts to seek a change of name for your children. If the children are 12 and 10, likely the process could be done very easily. They would sign "consent forms" and with your sponsorship in Court, could get an Order entered allowing the change of name. You would have to file a petition, and get an order conforming to the petition entered by the judge. This order would be forwarded with other paperwork to the Texas Bureau of Vital Statistics and the children's birth certificates would be changed, which would then allow change of school records, Social Security, etc. by the certificate or by certified copy of the Court's order. All of this can be done with relative ease, and usually entirely by mail without Court appearances involved. You would likely not ever have to visit with me or the Court, and yet accomplish everything via e-mail and surface mail.

I have handled this type of case in counties across the state, and have 2 such cases pending in your area right now. I would be happy to file your case and pursue this change of name for a flat fee of $500 + costs of court. Payment arrangements can also be made. The costs of court would be a filing fee (if any) and the $25.00 per child fee charged by the Bureau of Vital Statistics.
