A simple revocable living trust provides no insulation against creditor liens.

The judgment creditor can obtain an abstract of judgment from the court, and record it in any property where you live. The abstract, when recorded, is a lien that attaches to any real property interest that you own or later acquire in the county where the abstract is recorded.
