Adding My Son's Father to His Birth Certificate in New York
My question involves paternity law for the State of: New York
My son was born 4 months ago and at the time i didnt put the fathers name on the birth certificate. i now would like to add his name to the birth certificate. how would i go about doing this? and do i have to change my sons last name to his fathers if i add his father to the birth certificate?

If he wants to be added, consider an affidavit of parentage. If not, you'll need to file a paternity suit. Details are here.
