Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Ohio

Name change on deeds

When there are two names on a deed, is it legal to change one name to a trustees name without the other party being advised that this is being done. Since a deed is a legal document do you not have to have the signatures of both parties whose names are originally on the deed?

If there is to be a transfer, then both parties must sign. A separate acceptance by the trustee would also be helpful.
