Yes, I Can Help You Notarize a:

Name Change Application

A name change application is a legal document submitted to a court when an individual wants to change their legal name. It includes the person's current name, the desired new name, and the reason for the change. This application must be approved by a court to become official.

Why Use a Notary?

Notarizing a name change application verifies the applicant’s identity and ensures that they are making the request voluntarily. It helps protect against identity fraud, which can occur if someone attempts to change their name illegally. Notarization also adds legal credibility to the application, making it more likely to be accepted by the court. This process ensures that the name change is legitimate and properly documented.

Name Change Application

A Name Change Application is a legal document submitted to the court to formally request a change of an individual’s legal name. This may be done for personal, religious, or cultural reasons, or due to marriage, divorce, adoption, or gender identity changes.

In California, the name change process typically includes:

  • Filing a Petition for Change of Name with the court

  • Publishing a legal notice in a local newspaper (unless exempt)

  • Attending a court hearing to finalize the request

  • Submitting a certified copy of the court order to update government documents (e.g., Social Security, DMV, passport)

While notarization is not required for filing the initial petition, supporting documents or related forms (such as parental consent or declarations) may require notarization to confirm identity and signature authenticity.

A mobile notary can assist by coming to your home, office, or a public location to notarize any required documents as part of the name change process—ensuring they are executed properly and accepted by the court or other agencies.
