Legal Question in Personal Injury in Illinois
Can I file a UCC Lien against a settlement for physician services, instead of a Physician's Lien?
2 Answers from Attorneys

However, a UCC financing statement is a security instrument that identifies collateral that is like a mortgage on personal property and is granted by a debtor under a security agreement related to the financing of the property being given as collateral.
