Legal Question in Family Law in New Hampshire
I was awarded my house in a divorce back in 2006. The deed was switch over into my name (court ordered).However the loan is still in both of our names. My question is " Am I responsible for removing her name from the loan? am I required to?" Can she force me to refinance to have her name removed from the loan?

The answer to your question will require an examination of the divorce decree. The responsibility for the debt should be included in the decree. Depending upon the wording, she may have certain rights to have the mortgage removed from her credit report.
