A Lien is a legal document that is used to support the claim that an individual or a company has financial interest in property, whether it's real estate or personal property. If such a claim is valid, the proceeds of a sale must first go toward settling the claims of the lien before any other money is distributed.

Generally to remove a lien, you have to pay the amount of the lien to the lien holder. Even if it is abandoned, the lien holder still has a financial claim against it that must be satisfied before the title is clear. The only other possibility is to show a court that the lien is not legitimate.
