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 !”

“I am an ex-lawyer and FTSE250 CFO so have come across many lawyers in the past 30 years. Put simply, Maria is one of the best I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Family Law is an incredibly emotive area of the law and Maria's counsel and support got me through a very difficult time. Her advice was always clear and direct (even firm at times), always delivered with authority and compassion. I simply cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“I used Christopher to assist with completing my financial consent order and finalising my divorce. Communication was clear, accurate and very prompt. Christopher and his team have a wealth of knowledge and dealt with every part of the process for me with no issues I would not hesitate to recommend Paul Robinson in the future. Thankyou for you professional assistance. ”

“I’m extremely grateful to Mr Riaz and his team for their professionalism, support and guidance throughout the process. They were always quick to respond, kept me updated at every stage, and made everything feel so smooth and straightforward. I was very stressed initially, but their calm and professional approach really helped ease my worries. Thank you for making the whole experience so easy and for achieving such a positive result. Highly recommended!”

“I genuinely don’t have enough words to express how incredible Mr Syed Naqvi has been throughout my case. From the very beginning, he was everything you could hope for in a lawyer — deeply professional, kind, and always present. He was responsive at every stage, no matter how small the question or how late the hour, and made me feel like I was never going through this alone. What truly sets him apart is the way he approaches his work — with heart, with care, and with absolute commitment. He didn’t just represent me; he stood with me. Every step felt thought through, every decision made with integrity and compassion. And the barrister he chose, was just as extraordinary. Sharp, articulate, and fiercely protective — but also deeply understanding and warm. I’ve never felt so safe in such a vulnerable process.I could feel how much they both cared, how much they poured into the case, and how determined they were to make sure I was treated fairly and with dignity. I truly felt like I had the very best people by my side — not just legally, but as human beings. I will never forget what they did for me. I’ll carry their kindness and strength with me always.”
