My divorce settlement signed by an Okaloosa county judge in Florida awards me my home (and the mortgage). Do I still need to get my ex-wife to do a quitclaim deed? Or can I use the divorce settlement to do it myself? If so, how do I start that process?

Welcome tike,

The ex-wife needs to formally sign the quit claim deed and transfer the property to you. Once this is done, you need to refinance the loan in your name and release her from the liability of paying the loan. You need to contact her and ask her to sign the deed.
