I would like to thank all who respond in advance.
In short, the birth certificate has my last name. The ss card has the mother's last name. She has been using her last name for everything (medical records, childcare, etc) until recently when the new school refused to use any name other than the one on the birth certificate (they actually originally used her name until I called to ask the procedures and they realized they made a mistake). She is now taking me to court to change the last name. I'm not going to say I'm not worried, but I feel as though I have a strong case against the change. I am not a deadbeat. As a matter of fact I am taking her to court because she has not allowed me to see them (this is a long story).
I was told that I could take legal action against her for using a name other than the one on the birth certificate. I'm not looking to get any compensation or anything. I just wanted to know if this was true and if so could I get some more information about it. Thanks
P.S. Anyone know a good lawyer who works Berks County PA?
