Wills & Legal Documents

Deeds

Changing your name legally is simpler than most people expect. A deed poll, properly drafted and witnessed by a solicitor, gives you a clear document to update your passport, bank, and records. We handle it quickly and at a fixed fee, often the same week.

A clear, recognised change of name

A change of name deed, often called a deed poll, is a legal document confirming that you have given up your old name and adopted a new one. Once it is signed and witnessed, you can use it to update your passport, driving licence, bank, and other records. For an adult it is usually ready within a few working days.

Where the change is for a child, both people with parental responsibility normally need to agree, and it takes a little longer. We prepare the document correctly, witness and certify it, and explain how to use it. Choose the service below, or speak to us and we will guide you.
