name change for a minor - I am the only parent on the birth certificate
My son's last name is hyphenated. I
would like to do a legal name change
to drop one of the last names. I am
the only parent on the birth
certificate and there has never been
an admission of paternity. Am I
going to have to contact his father or
can I do this alone?

The Dad will have to agree, too. You should talk to a good family law attorney about the name change and doing a paternity action.
