Clients seeking to change their
names on their driver's license, birth certificate and/or passport
must file a petition for a legal change of
name. A name change can be obtained by adults,
and by children with the consent of their legal parents.
Clients who are transgendered may file an action to change their
first name to a name of the opposite gender, as part of the
transitioning process for sex reassignment surgery.
A
court may only refuse to grant the name change if there is evidence that the
client intends to fraudulently deprive others of any
legal rights under the law.
