[WSBARP] Name Change

[Nestor Gorfinkel]

PC had his name changed. The utilities department refuses to change name on account unless he records a deed with the name change. In my years of practicing law, I disliked the practice when someone would record a deed to oneself because ownership has not changed.
I am in a quandary, as to what to do. I see three options:


  1.  PC sign a deed to "himself" as Newself f/k/a Oldself to Newself,
  2.  Recording an affidavit or the court order in the public records, OR
  3.  Simply have him provide a certified copy of the court order to the utility department.

I have always gone with option three but who knows what the utility department will do.

Cordially,

Nestor Gorfinkel, Attorney at Law
