Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Iowa

Bought a house 4 years ago with girlfriend. Both names are on mortage and deed .Deall was each to pay 50/50. For the last two years she has not made her 50 even when she lived here. Can I sue here for the payments not made? Second she want me to sign assumption papers, but should she have to take her name of deed first. There is a trust issue that she will not do it afterward.
