How Mechanic's Liens in California Law Provide an Effective Collection Device for Contractors

by Legal S. Real Estate Attorneys in CA and NV

Mechanics' liens exist to protect two general categories of workers or suppliers, prime contractors and subcontractors.

Anyone that furnishes labor or materials on a work of improvement is entitled to file a mechanics' lien on the property where the improvement is located.

These rights exist whether they are contractors, subcontractors, laborers, or material suppliers.

In any business getting paid is a concern. Collecting payment for a contractor is especially difficult, as the work performed on the project is not something that can be repossessed should a customer fail to pay as agreed.
