I live in Northern California and have a question about judgement liens. About 10 years ago, I was involved in a auto accident and the ruling was against me. The other party had put a judgement lien against me ever since then in this county. I understand the judgement liens is valid for 10 years from the start of ruling. Is this only valid in ther same county? What happens if I move to a different county within the 10 years? Is there any legal way I can avoid the lien?
Issue#2:
My lawyer who was handling the above case no longer practices law. The problem is that he already collected all the money ahead of time. He has not notified me of his retirement. My understanding is that once a lawyer is signed on to your case he is responsible for your case until the full resolution of yur case. Is this correct? Furthermore, what can I do in this case? Can I get my money back?
