I'm from New York. My car accident was 8 years ago. Things are finally being settled (but for not what I've lost and will continue to lose.) My question is...are liens negotiable? what if there was a lien, then the dr's put it to collections in 2001. my attorney said that I have to pay the lien although it has been on my credit report since 2001 !!( giving me bad credit) .Do I also have to pay all of the liens even though my health or no-fault should of paid these? I'm on my second attorney in this bull*%$ Can I go after the dr's that messed up my credit rating by putting my bills into collections although there was already a lien on the settlement? Is that legal that they did that?: I need advice A.S.A.P. Thank you to anyone that can help
