Should I file a lien?

Steve Giboney
Director of Credit at Silvaris

We sold a load of Plywood to Selected Furniture LLC in Knox, Indiana (invoice date: 8-5-2021). They made some partial payments, but stopped after the last payment on 11/07/2022 ($1,000). The remaining balance is $9,372.39. Silvaris Corporation pursued collections through small claims court in Starke County for $6,000 (small claims limit when filing without legal representation). We received a summary judgment ($6,125 with court costs) which has been signed by the judge. Would a lien be an appropriate next step to pressure the debtor for payment or is there another avenue you would suggest?
