They have not paid for the invoice and we have sent it out for collections and they still wont pay the invoices. They rent a office suite but that office is in a building with other suites in it. Can I put a lien on that building?...Read More
I'm a subcontractor, who recently finished trim work on a new construction project, that's owner occupied. This gets weird. The homeowner is supposed to have a general contractor as required by their bank for the construction loan they took out. I was hired who I thought was the GC, only to find out he's not the GC. There's no GC on the job.
Now the guy who hired me is not paying and told me to speak to the homeowner about my invoices. The homeowner says the guy posing as the GC is responsible for paying me, but he's not a licensed GC.
I need to file a lien, and in this case it should be able to go against the homeowner and their property since there is no acting GC? Correct?
Also since I'm a specialty/subcontractor is there flexibility with sending a preliminary notice? Can and should I still send that?...Read More

Sir- We had big tornado in Naperville IL area last summer (summer of 2021). Lot of houses around us were damaged. Many storm chasers were knocking at our door. A particular company Home Pro Restoration sales agent knocked as well. I verbally negotiated and said I won't pay any additional payment from out of pocket- whatever is covered by the insurance company is what Home Pro will get, I also mentioned that I'll pick home pro over other only if Skylights will be part of the replacement cost. The company went through 2 re inspection process and managed to get $21,900 (in estimate) from our insurance (All State) and in addition charged us $2,320 for skylights. We verbally disputed the added charge of $2,320 and tried to converse and mention that this was never agreed upon in writing. We signed the first dispatched check of $15K but did NOT endorse the second and third dispatched check of approximately $1,700 and approximately $4,000 and asked the Home Pro guys that we'll endorse if you take out the $2,320 charge. The Home Pro sent us a letter from their attorney asking to endorse the remainder checks (which we have all intention of doing) and pay out of pocket $2,320 (which we don't think we are liable to pay). I called their attorney office once and the conversation was good but then I got the call back within an hour from the same attorney and he was extremely abusive in his tone on my regular conversation and he threatened to do lawsuit on me and put an immediate lien on my property. I would like to stop the lien against my property without paying the out of pocket expense. Could you please advice? Thanks a lot for your guidance....Read More
