Based on the information you’ve provided, and assuming there is nothing else that contradicts the contractor’s agreement to accept only the amount paid by
your insurance company, then they do not have a valid lien. There may also be other problems with the lien, such as timing, but I would need more
information to make that determination. You may want to consider recording a notice of contest of lien to force the contractor’s hand.

situation that could impact this analysis.See More...
