Hola tengo un caso de construccion soy un subcontratista y el contratista antes de terminar el trabajo me despidió sin pagarme el dinero por el trabajo realizado hasta esa fecha, el motivo por el cual me despidió fue precisamente para no pagarme lo que me adeuda por el trabajo realizada, de igual forma se apropio de mi herramienta y desde entonces no me contesta el teléfono me bloqueo cualquiere tipo de contacto con el y no he podido contactarlo porque se me esconde, aparte de eso utilizo lenguaje racial, homofobico y discriminatorio para referirse a mi persona.

We sent a lien notice on an Arkansas project. The notice was correctly sent to everyone required to receive it, and the notice itself was correctly prepared...except for this one small mistake.
Arkansas preliminary notice laws require that all notices contain the "NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER" text provided in the law. This text was included in our notice. However, the notice contained a single, small mistake.
The notice in the law requires the paragraph to say:
"IF BILLS FOR LABOR, SERVICES, OR MATERIALS USED TO CONSTRUCT OR PROVIDE SERVICES FOR AN IMPROVEMENT TO REAL ESTATE ARE NOT PAID IN FULL..."
Our notice provided the entire paragraph correctly, except, in this first sentence, the words "OR PROVIDE SERVICES FOR" were inadvertently omitted.
Does this void the entire notice? Or is this notice still likely effective?...Read More
I am trying to understand what I can use for the first & last furnishing date as an engineering firm. We work across most of the states, and I want to understand what date I need to Put into Levelset to begin tracking my noticies. We sign a contract with our customer and may not begin on draws for 2-3 weeks or 4-5 months. Do I use the contract date or the time we begin working on the drawings/measurements? In regards to the last furnishing date, is it the day we give the final documents to the customer? Do i update the date if they send up a revision order? ...Read More
The buddy/ licensed / insured/Bonded contractor I was working for messed up a homeowners kitchen last weekend. I was off work but Monday am the homeowner terminated the contract. The house was 3/4 finished and nothing was paid to me. The contractor said he had received nothing as far as a draw or any payment from the homeowner. I believe this to be a lie. The contractor has a record of dishonesty, fraudulent work experience and lies. An attorney ( hired by the contractor) is working on the issue but it will be several months. It is not my fault that the contractor I was working for royally messed up. I am out 100+ hours of pay and 2 weeks of my life ...Read More
My company usually does work in apartment buildings and is not required to provide pre-construction notices. However, we are currently owed money by a real estate agent for work done at a single-family home that is for sale. She has stopped answering our calls and emails. I think I have determined that we waived our lien rights because we failed to provide her pre-construction notice, as required by A.C.A. 18-44-115. Does this in any way affect my right to sue the real estate agent for applicable causes of action?...Read More
