Can you put a lien on your father's house for not paying you your legally earned wages?
A lien is a legal document that is actually placed by the court. You could take out a law suit against your father for not providing you with a legal wage, but the court would decide how you would recover your money.

What should you do if a credit card company put a lien on my house in California?
If the lien is attached to a valid debt, the only recourse the debtor has is to pay the amount of the lien. If the judgment debtor believes the lien to be faulty he or she has the legal right to file suit to have the lien removed from the encumbered property.
Can the lien against my property be released when the the original owner apparently with a tax debt died.?
Assuming you are talking about an IRS lien, then yes. If you were not liable for the taxes, then the lien should not be on your property. The first thing to determine is whether or not the lien actually attached to your property. If the previous owner of the house owned the house at the time the lien was filed, then the lien probably legally attached to the house. If this is the case, this is something you should take up with the title company that did the title work when you purchased the house. More common is that the IRS filed a lien and the address they had on record was still his old house (your house). Just because the lien had that address on it doesn't mean you have a lien on your house. If the property wasn't his, then it did not legally attach. If a title company still has issues with this (if you are trying to sell your house), you may need to get a Certificate of Non-Attachment from the IRS to show them that it's not attached.
Can a house be built on a property with a lien without being encumbered by the existing lien?

Can a construction lien holder force you to sell your home?
In a 'worst case scenario' probably they can. They have a legal lien against your property to satisfy an unpaid debt that is owed them. If they take you to court and are awarded a judgment against you, and your home is your only monetary asset, the court COULD order you to sell it to in order to pay off the lien.
Will there be a federal tax lien put on my house that's in foreclosure?
