Re: Judgements

To answer your question, yes, a lien can be placed upon the house. If you would like advice as to what can be done by the creditor to force payment of the amount owed, that is a more complicated issue, so please call me.

You have not given much information, so I do not know what you are trying to deal with. Do you and your spouse owe the money? Are you trying to collect the money? How much money is it.

Give me a call, if you like. The telephone consultation will be free. I will do what I can to help you out.
