Can I put a Mechanics lien? or what else can we do here?

New YorkMechanics Lien

We are located in NY... A Contractor from Indianapolis, IN , Hired us to do Stone work in at the Aloft / Marriot hotel in Seacacuas NJ . He gave us deposits and such. But never paid the full amount owed on final payment. Claimed that hotel never released funds. Did some research and hotel finally opened up Nov. 30th of 2020 and we can not get in contact with the contractor at all. Please let us know what we can do in this situation. Thank you in advance!

More information is needed, you could have been "strung along" until your lien rights expired. If your lien rights are expired, the best you can do is bring a breach of contract and unjust enrichment action, an attorney will need to be retained to conduct a preliminary analsysis.
