FAQ
A judgment lien is considered a nonconsensual lien because it is attached to a piece of property without the owner's consent or agreement.
A mortgage is a specific, voluntary lien. It is specific to the piece of property and is voluntary because it was agreed to by the property owner. A judgment lien is an example of a general, involuntary lien. Judgment liens can be applied against any of an individual's assets.
It shows up on your credit report as well as on any background checks. The judgment is considered a lien against your property, including any real estate that you have, in the state in which the judgment is filed.
Your mortgage company should send you a release of lien, and it must be filed with the County Clerk 214-653-7275.
Generally, to file a judgment lien, an abstract of judgment must be issued by the justice court. Some justice courts have a form available on their website to request an abstract of judgment.
Interested persons may visit the county clerk's office where the lien is filed and examine relevant public records. Alternatively, the searches can be done online using the county clerk's online search tool (if available in the county of interest).
Verify the Lien: Ensure the lien is valid and check for any errors that could invalidate it. Satisfy the Judgment: Paying the debt in full is the most straightforward way to remove the lien. Obtain a satisfaction of judgment from the creditor and file it with the court.
