Why don't you want to use an attorney? Unfortunately if the creditor placed a judgment a lien on your house before you filed BK, instead of the other way around, it will stay there. The only exception is that the court can strip off the portion of the lien that is above the present value of your house. How did you get a judgment against you? Did you call an attorney when you received the lawsuit?
