You do not have a lot of choice here. She is hurting your credit, and it will be much worse if the house goes into foreclosure. You have to go to court and have the Judge order her to pay up, or if she does not pay within 30 days then you can sell the house and pay the mortgage off.

If you do not take action, you may have some really big problems. And an attorney really can help you here.

Please call my office to make an appointment. This initial consultation for one half hour will be free of charge, and I will let you know what I believe I can do to assist you further.

If you cannot afford an attorney, then you would have no credit anyway. So, something doesn't add up here. If you have credit, you have money (credit cards) for an attorney.
