I am married and mother of two but always have wanted to change my name to my nickname. What steps should I take? Do I really need an attorney?How much does it cost to change my name in san antonio texas?No, you don't need an attorney. You can find forms on the net at some small cost or go to the your local courthouse. They'll be a filing fee and you'll probably need a copy of your birth certificate.
