Can an Home owners association put a lien on your property even while you are making payments?
You are not clear about who you're making payments to: the mortgage company for your mortgage, or to the association to pay assessments that are in arrears. If you mean payments to make up arrears, and the association filed a lien on your title, review the agreement that you made with them about making payments. It's possible that filing a lien is part of your agreement in some way. Or, that the association has filed a lien against you in error. If you mean payments to pay your mortgage, and you are not paying your assessments, your association filed a lien to collect monies that you owe in past-due assessments. (You have to pay both: mortgage and assessments.) If your assessments are up to date, check with the board to better understand why a lien has been filed by the association on your title.
Will a lawyer settle on a judgment that is 4 years old and already included in a chapter 7 and released and remove a lien on your property and if so what should you offer?
The judgment and the lien may reflect two different debts. Normally you cannot include a judgment in a bankrupcy or amend the amount to be paid since it is a court ordered payment to be made. You need to pay the court and get a paid receipt for the judgment. The payment of the lien would be reflected in a release of the lien for that property.

How do you file a claim or lien against a company who did not pay the account payables?
You can't just file a valid lien against a company. You have to have a statutory right to a lien on specific property. Therefore, unless you made improvements to their real estate, or did work on their vehicle, or are their attorney, or provided medical services, the only way you can claim a valid lien is to first sue the company and obtain a judgment. Then the judgment can be a lien against the company's real estate and you can also execute against its assets.
Can residential property be levied to pay a debt?
No levy may be placed on a home or even a garnishment made unless the creditor has obtained a judgment on the debt through a court. The judgment automatically becomes a lien of property the debtor owns. The creditor then attempts to levy on the property threatening to sell it to pay the judgment debt. Some states force a judgment creditor to go after personal assets like bank accounts first before going after real estate. In that way although the lien is there, the levy cannot yet be made.
Can a settlement offer be made to a credit atty after a judgment has been filed?
Of course it happens all the time e.g. the tobacco cases. So long as the parties are willing to accept a settlement and the monies are available then there shouldn't be a problem.
