A preliminary notice is sent at the start of a project to inform the property owner and other parties that you’re on the job—preserving lien rights if you are not paid.
Amending your preliminary notice with updated contract amounts and correcting inaccuracies is a best practice.
Cancel a preliminary notice that has not been mailed.
A preliminary notice only reaches back 20 days. If your request is made fewer than 10 days before lien rights are impacted, rush handling applies.
A formal, legal warning stating you will file a lien if an outstanding payment is not made by a deadline—often a final chance to get paid before recording.
A lien is a legal claim against a property securing payment for unpaid labor, services, or materials. Liens are recorded in the county where the property is located.
A lien release officially removes a previously filed lien after the debt is paid, clearing the property’s title. Releases are recorded in the county where the property is located.
Liens must be filed within statutory deadlines (often within 120 days of project completion). If your request is made fewer than 20 days before the deadline, rush handling applies.
A bond claim is a legal demand made against a surety bond to recover unpaid amounts or seek compensation for a breach of contract.
Tell us where you are in the project and what’s unpaid. We’ll recommend the best next step based on timing.
Some states require preliminary notices to be mailed via USPS certified mail and/or certified mail return receipt. All liens, bond claims, intents to lien, and releases must be mailed via USPS certified mail.
We coordinate certified mailing requirements and provide tracking details when available.
Recording fees are those fees charged by each county for recording documents and include third-party fees. Fees vary by location and document type.
We help identify the correct county and coordinate recording requirements where applicable.
Send your project details and we’ll help you choose the right document and timeline.
