    Default Minor's Name Change in Virginia

    I have 4 children with my husband of just 5 months. We have been together for 7 years but just decided to get married. All of the children are both mine and his, but he only signed the birth certificate of our last child (do to reason's that won't be discussed) Our last child has his last name also. Now we both want to have him listed on the birth certificates of our first 3 children, and have their last name changed to his, how should we go about doing this? We live in Virginia now (for the past year), but our first 3 children were born in Maryland. We are both in agreeance of the name change. There is also no doubt that he is the father. Some insight would be greatly appreciated.

    Has his paternity been legally established for the first three children?

    You should be able to file an affidavit of parentage in Maryland to have the birth records corrected. Instructions and the form are available here.
