Contruction Lien Law & Litigation Support



  • Few areas of the law are more fraught with pitfalls than the Florida Construction Lien law. Let us help you navigate this maze without stumbling. Our representation is usually limited to Subcontractors or Materialmen, as opposed to Owners.

  • Claims of Lien - Our representation usually begins after a client has begun work and realizes they may have a problem getting paid. Our experienced construction law attorneys will review the situation to determine if a Notice to Owner was timely filed and whether a Claim of Lien can and should be filed. If so, our attorneys can prepare and assist with the filing of a Claim of Lien.

  • Contest of Lien - Should you lien be contested, your time period to enforce your lien is severely reduced. Make sure to contact our construction attorneys immediately upon notification of a lien contest to review your rights insure that you will be paid.

  • Enforcement of Lien - A lawsuit to enforce your Claim of Lien typically must be brought within 1 year of the filing of your lien. Don't wait that long. Let us review your Claim of Lien as soon as it is filed to discuss your options for an effective lawsuit.

  • Bond Rights - Most State and Federal Jobs do require that a Bond be posted to protect lienors. Let our construction lawyers review the bond to determine what rights you have and to make sure that you follow all steps required by the Florida Statutes to recover from the surety.

If requested by our office - complete the attached Lien/Bond Worksheet and return it to our office to review your situation.
