Is it hard or expensive to change your name legally? I've thought about doing it for awhile now, but haven't had the chance to check into it.
I know aaall about it since my moms gone into her own "witness protection" after a psycho ex ((long story involving police 3 times a week, 8 court dates, 3 orders of protection, etc..))

You obviously have to go to court for it and it costs a few hundred dollars, minus the lawyer ((you might not need one??? my mom did)) If I remember correctly it takes something like 3 weeks to 1 month to get it through court and changed.
