I have recently discovered that a creditor who filed a judgment suit against me last year also filed a lien on a property that I do not own. This property is owned by my parents and I am not on the title, the deed or the mortgage. How did this happen and could the law office that filed this be committing a fraud?
I have investigated this matter further and have discovered that I am not on any paperwork that would associate me with ownership of this home. Further, I have contacted the law office that placed the lien and was informed that the attorney would not take this lien off and that I was to take the settlement offer that they have offered me. I unfortunately do not have the money to settle this and informed them of this. The women continued to pressure me to take the offer and told me that a lien is no big deal and that it will not be taken off. I then asked her if she would be able to provide me with information as to how it was determined that I have any ownership rights to this property that would establish this as a legitimate lien that can be enforced.
She informed me that she does not have that information and is not sure how this was accomplished. She told me that if I want to I could write a letter to the attorney requesting this information.
Is there anything else I can do. This attorney is a debt collector and I am not exactly sure how they are associated with US Bank. any advise as to how to proceed would be greatly appreciated.
