Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Washington

can my lawyer put a lein on my house for not paying his charges?
I live in WA. state, am 62, divorced in Jan. of this year. I get S.S. of $667 per month, this is my only income. I haved paid my lawyer over 3 thousand already and still owe him almost 5 thousand more for the divorce. I get no other support from my ex husband or anywhere else.
I cant buy all my perscriptions and try to find a rental and eat on the amount i have to live on. I asked him to lower my payment to him of 220 per month and the big late charge and interest, but he will not. My question is, if i do not pay him can he put a lien on my home that i have to sell or let it be forclosed on?
Thank you,

You need to contact the washington state bar association at www wsba dot org. Tell them what you said here; they can help you.
