Question

I got a divorce and forgot to include a vehicle that is in both our names how do I get his name removed from the title.

Answer

Is the car owned free and clear? If so, what is it worth? You will have to get him to sign the title over to you. Depending on the value of the car, you may have to pay him for his share of the car.

If the car is still financed, you will need to approach the lender. You can either get the car refinanced somewhere else, but he will still need to sign the title once you get it, or you can see what can be done with the current lender. They are not likely to release him and title the car just in your name absent payment of some kind.
