(a) The sale of a judgment or any part thereof of any court of record within this state or the sale of any cause of action or interest therein after suit has been filed thereon, shall be evidenced by a written transfer which, when acknowledged in the manner and form required by law for the acknowledgment of deeds, may be filed with the papers of the suit.

(b) When the transfer is duly acknowledged, filed, and noted as provided in subsection (a) of this section, the transfer shall be full notice and valid and binding upon all persons subsequently dealing with reference to the cause of action or judgment, whether they have actual knowledge of the transfer or not.
