Join Preti Flaherty and ABC Maine for a Mechanics Lien Boot Camp

April 18, 2024 at 8:00am9:00am

When a contractor, subcontractor, or material supplier encounters non-payment from a property owner for completed work, filing a mechanics lien can be a powerful legal remedy for ensuring prompt payment for labor and materials. The process for filing a mechanics lien can be complicated and contractors must carefully follow procedures and adhere to strict deadlines to perfect a lien. Failure to properly preserve or enforce a mechanics lien will result in the loss of the lien, and once that lien is lost, it cannot be recovered. This interactive webinar will provide an overview of the key considerations for contractors and the basics of filing a mechanics lien, including the process and associated deadlines.
