If it is a ''Ball-style'' handle, there is usually a 1'' (or

underneath the lower bottom of the handle, usually an Allen screw. Back it  
part way out, far enough to pull off the handle, but not so far that you  
lose the screw down the drain.  
 
The above assumes that you are merely replacing the handle, nothing else.  
But if you ever have to replace washers, etc., this is the 1st step in  
that process, too.
