You need an attorney to give an accurate and well informed determination on this matter.
AnswerYou cannot place a lien on any property without a court order to that effect. If your husband has refused to pay money that was ordered as part of a divorce action then you need to return to that court and file a motion for contempt of the court order. You can request that the court issue a judgment lien that you can record in the land records. As part of your motion you can inform the court that he has arranged to hold title to his property in another person's name to avoid you as his creditor. The court may allow you to attach that property. You should call the attorney who represented you in the divorce. They are familiar with your case, familiar with the court and know the steps you need to take to get your money.

Can a lien be placed against a property which is in tenancy of the entirety but the judgment is against the husband only?
No. If the property has always been in wife's name then it cannot be encumbered by a creditor of the husband. However, if the property was recently transferred by the husband and wife to the wife then the creditor may claim the transfer was a fraudulent conveyance and lacking any or significant consideration was made for the purposes of protecting the property from a creditor. A fraudulent conveyance will not protect the property from the husband's debt and may cause further problems.
