A judgment lien is created automatically on the debtor's property if the property is located in the Indiana county where the judgment is handed down. For debtor property in another Indiana county, the creditor files a copy of the judgment with the circuit court clerk for that county.

After the judgment is obtained, the creditor can enforce the lien right for the first ten years by attempting to foreclose on any real property or personal property the judgment debtor owns.
