Protecting Your Property Against Mechanic's Liens
A mechanic's lien is designed to ensure that anyone who provides labor, materials or other services on a construction project receives payment for the materials and services rendered. If the lien is not paid, the law allows the contractor holding the lien to foreclose on your property to collect payment.
The law has very specific requirements with regard to mechanic's liens. It is important to have an experienced real estate attorney on your side who can help protect your interests and your property. At The Lynch Law Firm, LLC, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, we have a complete understanding of real estate law and have helped many clients to resolve their disputes involving mechanic's liens.
Seeking a Positive Result in Your Case
Mechanic's liens can cause a number of problems for homeowners. They can cloud the title and make it nearly impossible to sell or refinance your home. Banks rarely, if ever, loan money on a property where there is clouded or defective title. There are many requirements that mechanic's lien claimants must follow for their liens to be valid. If any of the requirements are not met, the entire lien can be declared invalid.
With every mechanic's lien case we handle, the first thing we do is verify that every requirement and deadline was met. We scrutinize all the documentation and see that it is in order and that everything was filed and recorded according to the requirements of the law. If we find any discrepancies at all, we will seek to have the lien thrown out.
