My husband and I are not divorcing, I simply want my maiden last name back. I have been unsuccessful in trying to locate anyone in the Family Court system that can tell me exactly what form I need to fill out so that I can pay $150 and appear in front of a court who approves my request so that I can take it down to the social security administration and have it taken care of. Does ANYONE know what my first steps should be or what the name of the form is I would need??? Please help!
Name change
We're not name change experts here, but this likely will vary from state to state and even county to county.
Best bet would be to search your local county's web site.
For example, we found this document for a nearby county (Alameda, CA) :
