The judgment would of come through the court system. You would need to contact the court to know who to pay.
You can dispute the listing to the credit bureaus, but that doesn't mean it will be removed. They have 30 days to verify the listing and if it isn't verified it must be removed.

No. A creditor cannot force the sale of property owned as tenants by the entirety. It could record a lien but then would need to wait. If the non-debtor spouse died they could take the property. If the debtor spouse died they would be out of luck.

Your brother died tragically your son inherits his estate estate has to be run by an executor until son turns 21 2 and a half yrs Over 100000 in credit card debt What do you do?
After the applicable statute of limitations runs (typically four years on a credit card debt), the creditor will have a tough time collecting. If the creditor sues, you have to plead statute of limitations as an affirmative defense, but it is a good defense. ==Additional Answer== In some states there is a specific statutory period during which a creditor can make a claim against an estate. In Massachusetts, for example, once an estate has been filed for probate a creditor has one year to make a claim. After that period the creditor is barred from trying to collect from the estate. Check your state laws. If there is an executor then the estate must have been filed in probate court. If the creditor has already filed a claim against the estate in probate court then the claim will need to be paid before any disbursements are made from the assets of the estate. The creditor will not need to bring suit to collect and the claim filed will preserve its right to collect.

Can a debt collector collect on property whose owner is deceased and no deed of conveyance was done for the property in question?
Generally, if a decedent owned land and judgment liens had been recorded in the land records before he died the creditor could have the sheriff sieze and sell the land to satisfy the debt. If the liens were not recorded before the death of the debtor the creditor would be out of luck because real property passes to the heirs at the time of death. However, the creditor can make a claim agains the estate by filing the claim in probate. You should consult with an attorney in your area since state laws vary.
