13-93-114. Attorney's lien - notice of claim filed. All attorneys- and
counselors-at-law shall have a lien on any money, property, choses in action, or
claims and demands in their hands, on any judgment they may have obtained or
assisted in obtaining, in whole or in part, and on any and all claims and demands in
suit for any fees or balance of fees due or to become due from any client. In the
case of demands in suit and in the case of judgments obtained in whole or in part by
any attorney, such attorney may file, with the clerk of the court wherein such cause
is pending, notice of his or her claim as lienor, setting forth specifically the
agreement of compensation between such attorney and his or her client, which
notice, duly entered of record, shall be notice to all persons and to all parties,
including the judgment creditor, to all persons in the case against whom a demand
exists, and to all persons claiming by, through, or under any person having a
demand in suit or having obtained a judgment that the attorney whose appearance
is thus entered has a first lien on such demand in suit or on such judgment for the
amount of his or her fees. Such notice of lien shall not be presented in any manner
to the jury in the case in which the same is filed. Such lien may be enforced by the
proper civil action.
