What state do you live in? In California there was a place in the initial paperwork where I declared that I was going back to my maiden name. It probably depends on your state. I would look at the website and see what resources you have available to answer questions like this.

I live in Tennessee the lawyer had told me all of this said she had a client that waited til after her divorce too get her maiden name back and she couldn't she had too fight like crazy because her ex didn't agree with it and that she told her that she should have put it in their papers she wanted it back that way but said but either way it went if the man doesn't agree with it then basically we're shit out of luck but I really don't think my ex will do that but then again I didn't think he would have done half the things he had done too me and our two children and my oldest daughter guess ill see when that time comes I guess
