Payment Issues
Has a contractor placed a lien on your property?
Liens are one of the most effective legal mechanisms for addressing payment issues that arise on construction projects. When a contractor properly establishes a lien right on a property, it greatly increases the likelihood of receiving payment because the Property in question can be foreclosed on to collect the outstanding payment.

This statute contains rules on a wide range of construction lien issues, including when a contractor has lien rights, how lien rights are perfected, notice to owners, lien recording and lien enforcement. This law also sets a variety of deadlines and time limits regarding liens.
