Advice needed during transfer of equity ?

My ex partner left me 2 years ago agreeing to sign over the property to me with no other financial intrest, the property was in negative equity at the time, and may still be currently! It took me one and a half years to get the underwriters of my morgage company to approve a transfer of equity to my solename. I now have a 6 month time frame to get her to sign. she has become very hostile with her husband and theyre both in a lot of debt and trouble as bailifs, warrant officers etc are being sent to the property regularly to try and track her down. My solicitor has her address on file but has agreed to keep it confidential for her. Now it seems she has disappeared into thin air and left me in this position. I feel like she will stop at nothing to beg borrow and steel from anyone, and already has done with her mother. Her mother is in legal proceedings against her daughter also.

She only ever paid 20% of the morgage over the 4 years we had the property, this is the only financial involvement she had with the property, this is proovable on jointbank accounts. when she left the property according to the morgage company we were £3000 in to negative equity, im not bothered about recovering this. All i want is her name away from mine as she is tainting my life with her garbage. and some kind of financial protection. What should I do next?

    Engage the services of a tracking agency to track her down? I would also want to know why the solicitor I was paying to act for me was putting the interests of some third party above their client's interests.
