Every Lease. Every Lien. Every State.

UCC searches, filings and continuations for equipment finance, verified by people before anything is filed.

Who We Help

Equipment finance companies, leasing teams and their counsel trust Capitol Lien to protect their position on every deal, from first credit check to final termination.

What We Do for Equipment Finance

• UCC search and filing. Know what is already filed against a lessee before you fund, then perfect your interest in the equipment, fast.
• Never miss a continuation. UCC filings lapse after five years. Our monitoring flags every continuation date so your portfolio stays perfected.
• Multistate reach. Lessees and equipment move. We file and search across the US, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands and Canada.
• Corporate and lien checks. Good standings, tax liens, judgments and litigation searches on lessees and guarantors.

Our DIY System, or Let Us Do It for You

Use Database Direct, our filing and search system, to manage nationwide UCC filings on your own. Or hand the work to our team. Either way: No contracts, no subscriptions, no monthly fees. You save money, and a real person reviews every filing before it is filed.
