Removing the Father's Name from Birth Certificate in Pennsylvania
When I was 12 years old, my mother had this man's name put on my birth certificate, and he is not my father. She did this because he was the 'love of her life', but he was an abusive alcoholic and I would like to have his name removed. What kind of money and mental anguish is this going to cost me, and do I have any kind of legal recourse against her? I have spoken to my lawyer about this, but he is also her lawyer and I have a feeling that she told him to discourage me from doing this. Thanks for any help I can get! ;)

A: I don't know about money or mental anguish, but you have no legal recourse against her. If you want to pursue some kind of legal action to get his name removed from your birth certificate, get your own attorney.
