Legal Question in Family Law in Colorado
I am filing for divorce and I have most of the forms filled out. However, we recently bought a house and I would like to know how to proceed to have my name removed from the title. (Quit claim deed?)

You may not want to remove your name from the title - you might be better off deciding that in the divorce process. You also don't say if there is equity in the house and whose money paid for the house. Plus, if your name is also on the mortgage, it's risky to remove your name from the title without also getting off the loan. You probably should talk to an attorney about all the facts before going ahead with this. Hope this helps.
