Don’t waste your time searching for the correct wording or trying to close potential loopholes. Socrates has created a Decree for Change of Name specifically for California that will save you valuable time and money.

The Socrates Decree for Change of Name form is an official declaration of your name change. This order is called a final decree or final judgment in some jurisdictions.

Use this form when:

• You are required by your local court to submit a filled-in order form along with your name change petition
• You are directed by the county clerk to bring in a completed order form at the time of your hearing.

   

** Please note that this form is only applicable for adults who are changing their name. This form is not applicable for minors.**
