    Lien for attorney fees?
    Live in FL. In my divorce decree it states that if a party fails to follow through with terms and conditions they shall incur the attorney fees. My ex did not refinance one of our homes, so my name is still on the mortgage - I did my part by quick claim deeding to him. Can I put a lien on his home for attorney fees associated with having this matter resolved? If so, how?
