Re: Mechaical lein on home

Dear Liened Reader: Answer : Absolutely NOT!!!

No creditor has any right to attach any real, personal, or mixed property of a debtor without a valid judgment and order of a court of competent juirisdiction, and only after all right of appeal has expired or been exhausted.

When in doubt, consult and retain an experienced Attorney to advise and assist you.

Good luck!
