We are at the end of our project and we have only received $4,500.00 from our customer and now that I filed the lien against the owner of the property and the general contractor, the general contractor is mad that I filed the lien intent. He has priced our scope of work from another steel company and sent us the other companies bid saying he won't pay us our bid amount. The bid proposal was signed and return but they never sent a contract to sign. The general contractor is saying since we liened the project we can't go back onsite to finish the last of our work. I don't know what to do to protect our company from not getting paid for at least the amount of work that we have completed.
