Can I place a lien in AZ-is it legal-I have court judment?

The state is AZ; I have a court judgment against someone and this person refuse to pay me. I had sent a constable to her property and I also place a lien against her house. I got a letter from her attorney saying that I can’t place a lien on someone homestead –this is the only house she owns and I should remove the lien its illegal and I can be fine $5,000. I talked with the constable his answer was he thinks that the lawyer tries to blow some air but he is not attorney. I had looked up and I had found this link;

    depending on the amount it may or may not be worth talking to a lawyer familiar with state law. In my opinion, you can file a lien, which would have to be satisfied prior to them getting clear title to transfer, anywhere in the country...bankruptcy aside.....also an attorney can present the judgement to their bank, and if the funds are there, the bank may have to give you the funds....this worked for me in the past
