Mechanics Liens
Mechanics liens are often used in the construction industry to assure payment on work performed (also referred to as a construction lien at times). A Mechanic Lien is essentially a lien on property, and may be foreclosed on by a general contractor or a subcontractor in the event of non-payment. Certain procedures must be followed at the outset of the transaction (i.e. file lien) in order to assure that all work performed in connection with a particular construction project may be covered under the property lien. As progress payments are made in connection with the work performed, a general contractor and/or subcontractor issue a lien release or lien waivers as to the portion of payment received. If payments are not received in connection with work performed, a mechanics lien may be foreclosed on. Mechanics liens are an integral part of construction law and are commonly used in nearly all construction projects.
The Scottsdale construction attorneys at Bar Urness assist our clients in asserting, releasing, or foreclosing on mechanics liens, as well as defending against the improper assertion or the foreclosure on such liens when the proper procedures are not followed.
