How do you file a personal property lien?

In: Liens [Edit categories]

Answer:

Answer

Leins fall under the Uniform Commerical Code.

In most states, the UCC is handled by your respective Secretary of State's Office.

You should inquire with your State's Secretary of State Office - if they do not handle such, they can recommend which agency does.
