    Not sure what you mean by legal aid, did the legal aid department sue you and get a judgement and take that judgement to place a lien??

    Or did some person sue you, using the legal aid department of that state, and win a judgement, so in that case, some person has a judgement against you, and placed a lien.

    But if you have a first and second mortgage, and a lien, all three have to be paid off at the closing of the home, you can not close without paying all of them off.
