What forms need signed?

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Kentucky

I co-own a home with my ex (unmarried). He has filed chapter 7 bankruptcy, which indicated he wants to "surrender" the property. I am working with my mortgage company under the making home affordable plan. If they decide to modify my loan and I can stay in the house, what steps do I need to take to get my ex's name off the deed and title of the home?

quit claim..what else?

Thanks so much in advance!

A deed is prepared granting his interest to you and he has it signed and notarized and you file it.

However, if there is a bankruptcy in play, approval from the trustee is needed to do so most likely.
