I cannot see your document, but your lien has been removed from the property to either a cash deposit or a surety bond. The property is now free from the lien. Because there are special laws that apply you should see a lawyer where the property is located about foreclosing the lien against the deposit or bond.

There is no simple answer to this question. You should consult with a lawyer so that the lawyer can analyze the situation and provide you with a probable fee and cost range. The prevailing party on the significant issues in the case is allowed the recovery of attorney fees. Costs are also recovered by the prevailing party.

This means that instead of suing to foreclose a lien on real estate you have to sell, the owner has deposited money or a bond with the clerk of court, so if you sue to enforce the lien, you collect money instead of a judgment against real estate which then has to be sold at auction. Your lien is now a claim on a better and more liquid asset, which also covers interest costs and attorneys’ fees.
