My car got towed and I am unemployed, I was unable to come up with the money to take my car out the pound. My car was auctioned and now I have a balance with the tow company for 900 dollars. The tow company sent me to a collection agency and the agency told me that a lean was going to be put on my licence.
Hi perfect_cell,
As far as I know, a lien cannot be placed on the license. Liens are generally placed against a property or vehicle. As the collection agency is threatening to place a lien on your license, it's better if you can consult an attorney and take his advice on this regard.
Thanks

"As far as I know, a lien cannot be placed on the license. Liens are generally placed against a property or vehicle. " im quite sure that a liens can not placed on license.
Yes leins can be be put on you licence, I dont know how or why but this just happend to me yesterday. I still dont know why, nor does regestry office or the court house but its there and now my licence is suspended. so its very real. and it sucks.
I have never heard of being able to put a lein on ur license.
they can i can not own a car but i can still drive with a valid DL.The company that towed me went out of buisness in 2004 they towed me in 2003 a junk car in 2006 in could not register my car and was forced to put it in boyfriends name needless to say i lost that vehicle now i'm trying again and have a attorney helping it's not right
i have lean for more than 9 thousand dollar and i cant get my license back until its pay.. i was sued for a car accident that i didnt do but i took the rape because the person that was driving did not have license and now iam paying the price for helping a family memeber
cheryl i pray you meant you "took the rap in your post.
lost a quotation mark there somewhere but i think you know what i meant
So now I have a lien against my license for an amount that is a little over 5,000 dollars, but the collections agency promised to lift the lien so long as a payment is made. I sent them $150 in a money order and am just waiting.
I figured a collection agency couldn't do this without going through the courts.

Hi JonFromSeattle,
The collection agency cannot place a lien on your license unless they have a judgment from the court. You should contact an attorney and take his opinion in this regard. The attorney will let you know whether or not you can take any legal actions against the collection agency.

Hi jenjen!
Welcome to the forums!
If you never had a license, then they won't be able to place a lien on it!
