I want to contest a spurious lien. My remodel contractor sent me a Notice of Intent to Lien for $24,652. We moved into our remodeled home 6 months ago when the contractor said the project was finished except for punch list items. The contractor's accounting has been impossible for either us or the bank to follow, but we do not owe anywhere near $24,652. We have a number of problems with the house such as a faulty HVAC; a porch not built to plan specs; and faulty wiring that his electricians can't figure out--our refrigerator circuit is constantly tripping. We want to pay what is due and we want our house working properly. But we are very angry about the lien threat. We are confident his accounting is off and we also think it's way too late for him to file a lien anyway. If he proceeds to file the lien, how do we contest it as spurious?...Read More

We were notified by a factoring company that a subcontractor had factored an invoice we owed the subcontractor. The payment terms were with in our payment policy period. The subcontractor took the funds from the factoring company and did not pay his suppliers or his subcontractors. We are now getting demand letters for the factoring company to pay the invoice however we are not paying them but using the mobey to pay the outstanding invoices the subcontractor owes. Do I have to pay the factoring company or offest the payments from what the subs owes?...Read More

We are a subcontractor company, we entered into a contract with another Sub to provide Material only. We have invoiced for all of product, though we still have some on site that has not been delivered. We have invoices going back to August 2022 through January 2023 that are unpaid. The one time I was able to get them on the phone, he informed that he did get paid by the owner and payment would be sent. He has since stopped responding. Because this is a product only contract, do we still have lien rights? If we do, do we send the intent to lien to our customer as well as the owner?...Read More

I performed some services on a guys vehicle and he refused to pay me for the services. I am a new-ish small business with no capitol right now as COVID has hindered the startup of my business. That being said I made that clear to him when I told him that I was going to spend some of my personal money to complete the service labor, and he promised to reimburse that money to me when as soon as he was paid. When I was done, I requested that money back and an additional amount to purchase fluids to refill his cooling system so that the job can be 100% complete and ready for pickup. He refused to provide both the money spent on my part as well as the money needed to replace the fluids in his car unless the vehicle was running when he showed up, which I could not do due to the lack of fluids; it would defeat the entire service and jeapordize the integrity of the entire engine if I did so. I do not have the money to buy those fluids, especially after using my money on other items to complete the service. ...Read More

I filed an NOI for $3000.00 a few week ago. I have a clause in my contract that states that additional (out-of-scope) work can be billed at $150.00/hr. That drove my fee from $1950.00 to $3000.00 because this contractor insisted on having multiple zoom meetings to argue for a design I could not approve as a PE. What he was argusing for was a design that would have put me at substantial liability risk. He has now retained an attorney who sent a threatening letter. Rather than fight about the difference, I would rather just reduce the NOI amount to the $1950.00 from the original contract and be done with it. They have no argument against that amount whatsoever. How do I reduce the NOI amount?...Read More
