QUESTION
Do I have to go through the court system to get my name back and would I have to file a petition for it to happen?

More details to this question:
When I divorced 24 years ago, I did not take back my birth (maiden) name because my son was still young. He's grown and I would like to go back to my birth name. Could I get the divorce amended? I would like to take back my birth name without paying the court, if possible. Can you help me?

After such a long period of time, you need to go through the name change process rather than having the divorce amended. It is not a difficult process, and the self-help centers in Clark and Washoe Counties have forms available.
