This is a q that has been asked/answered a zillion times. Use the SEARCH function and Google, read & learn, and then come back to ask questions about details. You absolutely will need an attorney.

Get a lawyer.

The paperwork may look simple, but you never know. And this is advice I got from many good folks. You don't want to do this alone, and have one simple mistake that allows the other parent to change their mind.
