In Florida, a judgment lien can be attached to the debtor's real estate -- meaning a house, condo, land, or similar kind of property interest. Filing a lien entails establishing a legal claim against an asset, often a property or a vehicle, which is commonly used as collateral for payment of a debt. The lien certificate must contain the legal description of the property, the names of the judgment debtor and creditor, and the date and amount of the judgment. Take your certified judgment to the County Sheriff and request that he seize and auction the property to satisfy the judgment.
