Im an electrician and was called out by a GC to perform electrical services. I order the materials worth about $9,000. But when I show up at the job site to deliver the materials and start work, no one is there to let me in. The next day, the owner fires everyone due to financial reasons. In total, I have incurred about $1,200 in labor and $9000 in materials. I do not know how much I can file a lien for because the materials are in my office. Can I include the cost of the material in my lien even though the material is still in my possession?...Read More

Hello,
We worked with a pool company to design a new pool construction for our home. The permits and design were completed and $2k were given to the pool company. The project kept getting pushed back more and more so we decided to scrap the whole thing. We notified the pool company of the cancellation and they came back to tell us they would file a Mechanics Lien. Can they actually do this? There was no physical work done....Read More
We are a subcontractor who completed a job this month (September). We have one invoice that has not been paid since May, and another invoice that hasn't been paid since June. Is it best to group these amounts together into one demand, or send letters separately for each invoice considering their due dates were separate?
Thank you for your time....Read More
We are a subcontractor to a company on a commercial construction project. We have had issues getting paid by them before. The Pay Application we submitted over 30 days ago has not been paid. They say they have not been paid by the owner. I requested to know when they submitted their pay application to the owner, they have not answered that question. I am in Missouri. Their contract says that we will get paid when they get paid basically. I want to and have the right to know, by their contract, when they sent the pay app and when they get paid.
What can I do?...Read More

We are working with the owners of a project which is due to break ground in around 1-2 months, upon completion of permitting. We are concerned that the GC on the project may not be ready or able to start on time, and we have already given them an initial deposit. What kind of document, if any, can we send now to notify of the project's coming start date that will help us out in the case they are not ready to start on time and we need to take other actions?...Read More

I have written multiple emails to the contractor requesting they give us advanced notice when the road is planned to be blocked due to a panic and anxiety disorder and have received no replies.
Cars, vans and trucks involved in a new building construction on my block are constantly blocking my driveway. I have made several attempts to communicate with the contractor about this problem. I have a panic disorder and anxiety and every time it happens, it causes a panic attack. 10 minutes is enough to delay emergency response and cost somebody’s life. I’ve requested they give us advanced notice when they have work scheduled so we can park below the construction and plan ahead and they won’t. No one replies and the problem continues. I’ve reported it to the city. I call the police and parking enforcement. What else can I do? Do I need an attorney? Can I take them to small claims court for emotional distress and mental anguish? How much do I sue for?
