We sell insulation materials. How to guarantee receipt in these cases through Lien? Could we put a Lien on the trucks of companies or something like that in Massachussets? And in this case it is not exactly a construction project... It is just selling materials to other resellers... ...Read More

In Mass can a mechanics lien be filed 1 1/2 years after the completion of the work? We had new windows installed and the work was completed in August, 2018. The contractor says we still owe him more money even though we paid what he quoted us. He will not meet with us to resolve this matter. Can he still file a mechanics lien at this time? Does he have to go to court to do so? If he can will I be notified before it would be filed?...Read More

Hi, we are a sub-contractor pursuing payment from a general contractor. We have just received a letter from the GC stating that they have issued a Notice of Default and Termination on the project that they were working on (which is the same project we were on also). What does this mean for us in terms of payment? I'm concerned as our lien time is drawing to a close very soon, I think we have another two days to file, so if you could get back to me as soon as possible with regards to whether we should file a lien or not? The letter does go on to say that the GC intends to pursue its claims for nonpayment according to the provisions of their contract with the owner, including amounts claimed by its subconstractors - not sure if that helps. Look forward to your reply. Thank you....Read More
