Removing Name from Joint Tenant Account

What legal steps do I need to take, to remove my ex-wife's name on a joint tenant account, if she refuses to comunicate or answer any of my attempts to settle? She is not a U.S citizen, and lives in her country.

The easiest way to address this problem is to close the account, as is your right. Then, if you want to continue banking with the same bank, open another account in your name only. Your bank will be happy to assist you, if you are concerned about debit cards and electronic fund transfers.
