I believe you must first go through the proper steps...
1) Ask that they remove fence and have an accurate survey of your property line to support your complaint.
2) If they refuse, you can file a suit
3) They are either required to move the fence to their property line,
pay a fine, possibly all costs involved in the complaint if you win.
4) If they do not pay, and a lien can be filed against their asset/ie real estate to support the judgement. Consult with a real estate atty in your area for verification.

If the neighbor has agreed to help pay for the fence and failed to follow through, then you could go to small claims court. If the neighbor does not want to help pay for a shared fence, then your choice is to go it alone or not to build the fence at all. You cannot force a neighbor to put up a fence.

You cannot place a lien on anyone's property. You would need to sue the party and obtain a judgment lien from a court of jurisdiction.

Can a neighbor place a lien on your property for cutting the grass?

A neighbor cannot place a lien on your property for cutting the grass unless he has a written agreement with you stating that you will pay him to cut the grass. There would then need to be a breach of that agreement and the neighbor would need to obtain a court judgment in his favor. However, in most jurisdictions, a town can order the clean up of a derelict property and record a lien for their costs.
