What does it mean when a bill goes from collection to an attorney?

An owed bill goes to a collection agency so they can collect on it. When they can't collect the amount owed (which by the time it goes to the agency, they may take a low offer on the amount) they go to an attorney so the attorney can sue the person owing the bill in court. By suing the ower, they get a judgment that goes on the ower's record and they can put a lien on property and maybe garnish pay or bank accounts depending upon the amount owed. This is not a good thing.
