FAQ
Liens are valid for five years from the original filing date. Florida law allows judgment liens to be filed a second time to extend the lien's validity five more years. (See s. 55.201-55.209, F.S.)
Duration of a Judgment in Florida A judgment can be enforced against real property or personal property for up to 20 years under Florida law. That means that a creditor can pursue payment from you for up to 20 years from the date of the judgment if the creditor extends or renews it.
The Length of a Judgment A judgment is good, and can be enforced, for up to 20 years. That seems like a long time, and it is. A judgment is good for 10 years and Florida allows a creditor to “renew” a judgment before the expiration of the 10 years for an additional 10 years, thus giving a judgment almost unending life.
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.
In the state of Florida, a judgment lien becomes a public record and expires after 20 years, ing to Florida Statute 55.081.
The recorded judgment automatically attaches to all property in whatever county the judgment is recorded. The creditor would have to record the judgment in all 67 Florida counties separately to create a state-wide lien on the debtor's real property. Second, only “certified copies” of the judgment give rise to a lien.
To attach a lien, the creditor must record the judgment with the county recorder in any Florida county where the debtor owns real estate now or may own real estate in future. For liens on personal property, the creditor files the judgment with the Florida Department of State.
You can obtain a judgment lien on the judgment debtor's real property by recording a certified copy of your judgment in the real estate records in the county in which the property is located. Such liens are not recorded with the Department of State.
