Its is hard to put a specific pricetag on a mechanic's lien case, as they are all different. For example, some settle quickly while others go on for years through the appeals process. But, it is unlikely a case can be taken to trial for less than $15,000 in attorney's fees, which might mean it is not cost-efficient for you to pursue a lien ofr $15,000. That being said, I have filed mechanic's lien actions for as low as $10,000 and succesfully had my client paid for less than $2k in fees. So, again, all cases are different!
