My condo has been being restored by a company and it has taken 4 years for me to get back into my property. I have 3 years of lost rental income. Now the restoration company wants to file a lien for the remaining $3200. How do I dispute this?
The legal analysis would start with a review of your contract, and then extend to whatever documents explain or detail the extended project duration, and to any communications which have occurred.
You should consider preparing a letter to mail by certified mail to the contractor to set out the facts, and to demand the relief that you want. Typically, the best defense is a good offense, so you may consider making a claim against the contractor.
Retain a construction attorney to evaluate your legal situation and to provide advice.
Good luck.
