You will need to hire an attorney to help explain the circumstances and get the birth certificate amended.

That is pretty simple, just write to the hospital that the child was born in. Request the birth certificate. She will probably have to fill out a form and request it through county records. It will cost a small fee as well. But, yes it can be done and it is pretty simple to do.

consult a legal aid, but she can do a paternity test to prove teh child is hers, and then fill out forms with the legal aid to correct hte Birth Certificate.

Call the "County Recorders Office" They will give you all the answers and can give you a copy and make changes if necessary.
There is a small fee of like 25.00.

Contact a family law attorney. You will get no correct answers here.
