Legal Name Change

A legal name change is the official process through which an individual alters their name as recognized by law. This typically involves submitting a request to a court or relevant government agency, often requiring a valid reason for the change, such as marriage, divorce, or personal preference. Once approved, the new name will be recorded in official documents, enabling the individual to use it for legal purposes, identification, and in everyday life. It’s important to update all legal records and identification documents to reflect the new name after the change is granted.
