How do i get off a lien?

Yes, you might be held liable for a subcontractor's bill if the contractor failed to pay them. I would immediately contact the contractor and find out why the sub was not paid and turn the billing over to them. There is also the chance that the subcontractor did not timely file the lien and it would be invalid. . If the contractor won't resolve the situation, then speak with an attorney.
