Rules and regulations for sending a New Jersey Mechanics Lien
Liens must be filed in New Jersey within 90 days from when the claimant last furnishes labor and/or materials to a construction project. This deadline marks the 90 day period from when you last performed labor and/or materials.
After completing the New Jersey Construction Lien Form, you must deliver it to the appropriate parties required by statute. Notices are typically served on the property owner and, for sub-tier parties, the general contractor. However, depending on the type of notice, it can be helpful to send notices to anyone else who is in charge of your payment, like a lender or surety company on the project.
