What are my options when mechanics lien was filed but not enforced?

ColoradoMechanics Lien

Couldn't file a law suit due to financial problems caused by the pandemic and now mechanics lien is expired. Amount due is still not paid and would like to know if i still have any options.

Even if you are out of time for recording a lien, you may still be able to file a lawsuit for breach of contract or unjust enrichment. I would need additional information in order to give you a better answer though. You can reach me at our office at 888-989-1777 if you would like to discuss further.

Lien foreclosure isn't always the best or most cost-effective means of collecting anyway. Generally, the statute of limitations for a breach of contract action is 3 years in Colorado. Feel free to contact us for a free consultation to discuss your potential remedies. 7205007855.

Even if the mechanics lien statute has expired, you may have a claim for breach of contract or other action for money damages you can pursue in court. You should consult with an attorney regarding your options.
