As the owner of the property can I file a lien against my contractor who owes me money?
UtahThe contractor owes us money for credits from materials he over bought and returned, mistake he made pouring concrete foundation, and gutters he took down, disposed of and never replaced. Costs total around $10,000.00. We are waiting for the final invoice which we would like to deduct these fees from. Can I file a lien against him to get my money back?

No; you cannot file a mechanic's/construction lien. However, you can commence a legal action asking a court to enter a judgment. If/when you obtain a judgment, you may be able to record the judgment. You should contact an attorney to discuss your options.
No attorney client relationship will be formed with Mr. Thornton or Skoubye Nielsen & Johansen, LLC (snjlegal.com) unless Mr. Thornton is contacted directly
and agrees to enter into an attorney-client relationship through a written agreement. This post is for information purposes only and does not consSee More...
