Say that someone owes you a lot of money for back child support (like $60,000) so that debt is recorded 'officially', how could you put a lein on a property that person owns?

Get with the county prosecutor and they will tell you if you can file and how. Be sure that you have your suoort order with you. You will also be able to get his tax returns EVERY year until the debt is payed.

If the lien used real property as collateral then just go to the courthouse and file a "notice of default", if it is a then you will need to approach this defaulted IOU thru civil action and a judgment will be entered in public records, thereby becoming part of any future title or abstract searches. But, remember that in some "community property" states paying off of such a lien may still be avoided if eligible for a "continuous marriage affidavit" is recorded.

Believe it or not, but there are places you can find on the internet that can do a lien for you. Not sure how much they cost but if you want someone else to handle this it may be the best option. My buddy was going to do this for a jerk who owed money for a home renovation he did. I told him about the lien websites, he in turn informed the jerk client about this and guess what? The jerk client paid !!! Take a look at these places and see if they are a viable option for you. Best of luck.

Need to go to the Clerk of Court office with your court order and fill out the paperwork, usually. Most states have simplified the process. A notary or paralegal can also draw up the papers (much cheaper than an attorney). But contact the Clerk's office first.
I am not an attorney and this does not constitute "legal advice"

another thing you can do..is you can either do this on line, or call the county clerks office. Find out if his property taxes are up to date, if not pay them yourself. This puts a lien on the property,.,.,.plus if the day comes he wants to sell....he can't without paying you out first.
Good luck!!!

You need to consult with an attorney or a legal service. They will advise you on getting the process started and on any alternatives to a lien.

If you have a judgment against the person, it is already a lien against their property.
