Hi Sadie,
Yes, a quit claim is the way to go. It is easily found on the web, or even in your local office supply store. Just get it, fill it out, go to your local bank or wherever to sign it in the presence of a notary. Take the completed form down to you local tax office to get it recorded, and you're done.
Your Mom's debt doesn't play a factor into her ability to sign over her half of the house to you. You'll be good to go!
Cheers,
Kim

Hi Sadie,
Kim is absolutely right. And if the house is on mortgage, then quit claim is only option for you to transfer the title. Otherwise, you should consider warranty deed for transferring the title.
