    Last Name Change Procedures in Illinois
    My daughter is 16 months. She cause her fathers last name. The father pays court issued child support. He has not visitation. How do I go about changing her last name to mine? Does the father have to be involved? Does it cost money?

    If you don't have the father's permission you will have to get a court order for the name change, and would typically have to convince the court that the name change is in the child's best interest. There will be a filing fee, and of course if you use a lawyer there would be lawyer fee.
