I Accidentally put my first name as my Legal Business Name instead of my Business' Name. When I try to change it, the text field is grayed out and won't allow any change. There has to be a way to change the Business Name, I'm sure there are businesses that actually change their name and need to update their information. Please let me know how I can do so??
