My question involves court procedures for the state of: Washington
1) Is the 'Notice of Claim of Lien' document essentially the lien itself? Or it is simply a notice to the Recorder's Office that the 'real' lien will be placed on my property soon?
2) What is the typical procedure in disputing a lien? If it matters, the lien is related to an HOA special assessment that was placed on my account. I found the following link when doing a bit of my own research, and it seems to be the typical steps in disputing a lien.

Does anyone know if the above RCW 60.08.080 is the correct section I'm supposed to be reading?
Thanks a bunch!
