Is it possible to find someone who has legally changed her name?

Question

I am looking for a woman from California who legally changed her name roughly around 1992-1994 when she was released from prison. How could I go about discovering what her new name is? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Usually when someone is released from prison they have a probation officer. You might check with the county she lived in, the probation office, and see if they have a record of the name change. You could also contact the county court and ask if the name change occured there.

Answer 2

Check with the county Court Houses as it is in the public records.  Each state has a data base where you can access the different counties and do a name search.  Some Counties you may have to pay for - others are free.

Good Luck
