This area covers the steps people take to change how their name appears on official documents and records, typically starting with a surname or forename change for adults or children. It includes when a deed poll or statutory declaration is used, and what happens when the change relates to linking identity with employment, banking, or family life. A solicitor in this area helps you prepare the necessary documents, guides you through eligibility, and handles any required notices or applications. The work may hinge on procedural steps, timing, and official acceptance by relevant registers.

“I would very strongly recommend Stowe Family Law. I have used Stowe for various legal proceedings for children’s and family finance related cases and they have been excellent. Throughout litigation, I have dealt with many members of staff at Stowe and they have all been extremely helpful and competent. I instructed Orla O’Connor for the legal proceedings. Orla is incredibly knowledgable and thorough, offering sound advice and managing my case, which was particularly challenging at times, very professionally. Orla was able to achieve my desired outcome at the final hearing and conclusion of my child order application. I cannot recommend Orla (and Stowe) highly enough !”

“Samantha O'Dwyer and Debbie Glover are a formidable experienced and professional team at Amphlett. My divorce case has been going on for a long time due to complex issues, however I was guided and advised in such a wonderful and professional manner that ongoing engagement process became lighter, they did all the work and I was able to resume a normal life whilst the process was ongoing without worrying. The case has now been concluded and I am very happy with outcome Sam and Debbie have given my life back. I wish to not only thank them but congratulate them for being a true asset to their firm. I recommend them for matrimonial matters. I have provided a 5 star rating.”

Jack StrakerHumphreys
Head of Leeds Team
“I has been a pleasure to work with my solicitor and their assistant. Both were dedicated and professional in what was a very challenging time for me. They were able to support me and answer all my concerns and with the assistance of the wider legal team gained a positive outcome to my case. There were times when I was emotional and times where I was frustrated and on each occasion I was supported and reassured. ”

“My son and I can not recommend National Legal Service enough. All the staff are compassionate and efficient, leaving us in no doubt that they get the job done, with their caring and professional attitude. Zeeshan went above and beyond the call of duty, with 2 minutes to spare, for an urgent court case we had no idea was happening. Having never spoken to Zeeshan before, I had to give him a summary of the history and what needed to be done. Within an hour, we had confirmation that our request was successful, with the court case won in our favour. As a company, they excel in Family Law, and the staff stands head and shoulders above any other legal company.”
