This notice of lien attaches to the full amount of the settlement as an asset of the claimant. This includes third-party and first-party damages (uninsured motorist, uninsured motorist bodily injury, uninsured motorist general damages, etc.). The only exclusions are medical bills paid directly to a provider and property damage (unless Washington State Department of Social and Health Services is listed as a lienholder on the vehicle’s title).
