Remove improper lien

FloridaLien Releases

I have had an improper lien filed against my property and need to know how to get this removed. I have my property in Florida. Please let me know what are my options. This contractor ruined my floors and it is I who should be suing him for the damage done. Thank you. Gianni

The easiest option is to record and send a "notice of contest of lien" which shortens the time to file suit on the lien from one year to 60 days from service of the notice. Unless the contractor files suit to enforce the lien within the 60-day period, the lien is automatically voided. If you have questions about how to do this, you can consult with a construction attorney who should be able to do this at a low cost.
