Can i file a lien on a non-for profit organization?

Indiana

Hi, i worked for 2/3 years at this place installing perfect epoxy floor/wall systems. every job they gave me i gave great deals with the highest of quality possible. They had a very large project that they could not find any one capable of doing after 4 years of searching. I was there and i told them i could do it, i showed them a sample and they loved it. A year later and during the covid bomb on our country, i was able to start this project. However COVID took its toll on me along with everyone else. After giving me the project i couldn't start it for almost 2 months later as i had covid and was down. Long story short... the let me get within 24/48 hours before they terminated my project owing me $21,000.00. They threw me 7k and told me not to come back. I figured its because they have a maintenance guy that could do it very easy now that i did all the hard work. But, seams one of my guys got in under me that i trained and gave them a better price. They owe me $14,00.00 and im not sure how to handle it from here. I cant just let them do that.

Please give my office a call 260-782-1712. I think I need some additional facts regarding your case to assess what is going on. Typically, you have 60 days if it's a residential structure or 90 days is if it's a commercial structure to file a mechanics lien. Depending on circumstances you may be required to give preliminary notice before you can file a lien. Also, there may be some exposure under various consumer protection statutes if it's a residential structure. I look forward to speaking with you.
