Answer
You essentially have full custody of your son already, but just don't have a formal declaration. You do have the right to ask the court for a declaration that you have full custody, and your son's father can appear to fight it, but may not. You should visit Family Court.
Answer
You can file petitions in the family court for custody as well as for a name change. He will need to be served with both of these petitions. If you have him served in New York before he relocates that may make things easier for you.
