Debts and Credit

I have to loan my son $12000. He is in the midst of a divorce and owns his home without any debt or mortgage (it is in his name only). I want to know if there is a form (like a lien) that he and I can sign and get notarized, so that if/when the house sells, I can be assured of being repaid. He is agreeable to this. I am concerned that the divorce is not final and if there are any issues regarding the final settlement, I need to be repaid regardless. Is there a form to use to do this so I do not incur expense of a lawyer?
