I AM NOT AN ATTORNEY!!! However, I do work on personal injury cases quite a bit. I know in Massachusetts, medical liens come out of the plaintiff's settlement.
Yes--as to that lienholder's lien only.
I'm not aware of such a lien. However, the settlement will presumably end up in a bank or investment firm somewhere, where it would be subject to lien.
No. I assume that you were in a car accident and that you had injuries. I assume that you had medical expenses that were not covered by insurance. I assume that you own a house and there is a lien on that house to pay the cost of the medical care. I assume that the insurance settlement took 2-3 years to settle. I assume that your settlement amount paid by the other driver's insurance policy was less than the cost of your medical care. There is no other "insurance" to rely upon to pay the cost of the medical are that was not covered by your insurance and that was not covered in full by the amount of money you received from the other driver's insurance company.
yes
No.
Not really enough information is given in the question. If the jury trial found in favor of the defendant on the matter of the lien, then the lien is legally null and void.

A lien can be placed on a home for medical bills. However, it does require a written agreement or a judgement to that effect.

yup
Yes. If they can find it the court can place a lien on the proceeds like any other creditor can through the court. Child support is a debt you owe.
