I am a subcontractor that has signed a contract with a GC. We were getting information regarding equipment for the job and the supplier wanted a joint check agreement. GC would not sign their agreement but wanted them to sign the GCs. Their Comptroller stated that the working in the joint check agreement from the supplier was that if the subcontractor did not sign the joint check they would have to pay the supplier twice. The statement she was was that "ARSIMS May misappropriate the funds". We have never worked for this GC nor have we ever had a problem paying our suppliers. The GC no longer wants to work with us but we want to know what or if any recourse we may need to take to be proactive to make sure there are no future issues....Read More

My husband & I are buying a house & the person selling it to us has his homes remodeled for banking purposes. His contractor had us do certain work & buy certain materials & promised reimbursement & payment for labor. Once the seller did the final walkthrough the contractor said he wasn't paying us. We moved in & was helping with the remodel that ended up taking a couple of months, now the contractor is saying since we didn't have to pay a mortgage payment for 2 months, that is our payment. We have text messages, pictures & receipts for everything that we have done & bought. Do we go after the seller & the contractor? ...Read More

Owner claims he was not notified prior to the lien being filed. He claims he should have been notified when the work was started. My reading of the statute says that the notice must be given within 45 days from when the work was started. I need to know how to respond best. The owner is trying to go around my lien and claiming it will cost me more in attorney fees then the lien amount to fight this. As I see it, it is his fight. He needs a lien release from me for work done. ...Read More
