Name Changes
How To Legally Change Your Name In Indiana
At Langer & Langer, we understand how important one’s name is to their identity. We also understand that there are many circumstances that may lead an individual to elect to change their name. When someone seeks to change their name in Indiana, they must file a Petition with the Court and follow the proper statutory requirements to do so. Once all requirements have been met and a hearing has been held, the Court may issue an order changing a person’s name.
Obtaining Real ID Compliant Identification
Real ID Complaint identification will soon be necessary to board domestic flights and enter federal facilities. Based on the documentation necessary to obtain a Real ID, many are discovering that clerical or other errors have resulted in their documentation, such as their birth certificate, not matching the name they have utilized on other documentation. This could result in someone being ineligible to obtain a Real ID until these errors are corrected. Many times, in order to correct such errors, a Petition must be filed with a Court and a Court Order issued that corrects any inaccuracy.
