Can I file a lien if I was hired directly by by neighbor to remodel his home even though I am not a licensed contractor

Can I file a lien if I was hired by a neighbor to do extensive repairs and remodeling on his home even though I'm not a licensed contractor? I've been doing home renovations 20+ years and was hired by my neighbor while I was out of work to remodel his home

You can file an lien, but you can expect to have the license brought up as a defense. Filing liens is pretty tricky and not easy to do. If you mess it up, the lien will be invalid. Give me a call if you need to retain an attorney. Thanks. Josh Stone, Stone & Bellus, P.C. 770-390-9950.
