In California the regulations and statutes to file a automotive mechanics lien have changed over the past few years. In essence, an individual can not file a Lien, it can only be filed by a automotive repair or storage facility.

The repair facility must have a Bureau of Automotive Repair license (BAR) and the possessory lien holder can use a service that is licensed as a Registration Service such as autolienservice.com.

you can file it yourself.

you can hire an attorney.

or you can use a service like http://www.expresslien.com.

In Minnesota does a mechanics lien supersede a first lien holder?

A first lien holder is usually the lender or mortgage holder. Mechanics or Construction Liens do not supercede any lien placed before them or mortgage recorded after the lien is filed. In Minnesota mechanics liens are only enforceable for one year after the last day of service. Any lien holder, regardless of where they are in priority, can file to enforce their lien at anytime during that one year period.
