Yes. If a creditor first sues you and then acquires a judgment, they can place a lien upon your property. Your best best would be to either settle with them or file for bankruptcy in order to avoid that. Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions; [email protected]

Yes.

Your creditors may get a judgment and then place a lien upon the property.

Yes, they may place a lien on the property, and in some instances even force the sell of the property, but first they must get a judgment. Feel free to contact our office if you wish to discuss further, 773-684-5730.
