People change their name for a variety of reasons. What the law thinks of this is simple. A name change is acceptable unless it seeks to defraud or has some criminal benefit. Simply asking others to call you by your new name could work. A Deed Poll or Statutory Declaration is more sensible as other parties and authorities accept more readily a legal document than just your word.
Our charges for the preparation of this deed are £90 plus VAT.
