My question involves name change laws in the State of: Florida, My Ex is in jail and will be there probably be there for life or till my daughter is already an adult, I would like advice on the name change process I know I need my ex to sign as well but how exactly does that work, do i send the paperwork through mail or does the court assign a day where he signs it? Do I need a lawyer for this process? What is there to do if he doesn't agree to sign, can it be bypassed?
