Question of Collection

Texas

We did not sent a Notice of Bond Claim or a Preliminary Notices (i.e. Notice of Contractual Retainage) - Public on a job for the City Of Austin, TX. We did send a Notice of Intent to file a lien. What are our options to try to collect?

I suggest you reach out to an attorney immediately. As this is a public forum, I do not want to get too specific, but having filed the lien may be financially dangerous for your company and open the door to liability against you. Your legal rights will be governed by a mix of you contract and the law as it applies to public construction contracts. Typically government contracts require an administrative process in lieu of going to court, but that differs between governmental bodies.
