My daughter's birth certificate has an error on it. It is my fault for putting off the correction. According the VA, where she was born, I first have to get a court order for name change where we live now, which is Randolph Co, NC. I've done a name change in VA and it was easy. I called the Clerk of Court here and was told they can't give legal advice, to call a lawyer. I did, he said it was easy, I didn't really need to pay him $300 when I could do it myself. I called the clerk's office back, but they won't tell me anything other than I have to post a notice for ten days. They won't even tell me what is required to be on that notice. They say that it is giving legal advice. I want to do this myself, I just need to find out what the steps and requirements are to change my daughter's name in Randolph Co, NC. The only thing I found online so far is the template for the Petition for Change of Name of a Minor. I need to know what else I have to do. Thank you for any and all assistance.
