GeorgiaLien Waivers
Attorney at Curtis & Kidd, P.A.
Not necessarily. In Georgia you have 90 days after you signed a lien waiver to file an affidavit of nonpayment in the county real estate records where the
project is located. This will preserve your lien rights if done correctly. Please feel free to contact us if you need any further assistance.

You will need to file a lawsuit against the party that owes you for the services provided and then file a Notice of Commencement of Lien Action in the real
estate records in the county where your claim of lien was filed. Please feel free to contact me if you need any further assistance with this. Thank you, Bill

Attorney at Curtis & Kidd, P.A.
Matt, You would be able to file an amendment to the lien to reduce the amount claimed after it has been filed. This situation is specifically provided for in
Georgia's lien statute. I hope that helps. Thanks, Bill Kidd CURTIS & KIDD, P.A. bkidd@curtiskidd.com

If you mailed a copy of the lien by certified mail within two business days of filing it, addressed to the property owner at his/her last known address, then your
lien should be enforceable. The fact that the postal service did not deliver it for one reason or another does not invalidate the lien. I hope that helps. Thank
you, Bill Kidd

file a Notice of Commencement of Lien Action in the public records. Hope that helps. Bill Kidd CURTIS & KIDD, P.A. bkidd@curtiskidd.com
