I have reviewed your prompt payment resources which are extremely informative. Do you have any information on which states prompt payment legislation also applies to design consultants (architects/engineers) and not only contractors. (note: I am looking for resources on all states - not just Michigan which was selected above)...Read More

MichiganPrompt Payment
Last summer I was hired as a subcontractor to perform about 90 commercial roof inspections using a drone, an rgb camera, and an infrared camera. The end client is a very large commercial real estate and property management company. I have only been paid about 75% of the contract's total value. Up until a couple of weeks ago the company that hired me was saying I will get paid in full when they get paid. I sent an email inquiring about the situation yesterday, and now the company who hired me says I must talk only to their attorney. I do not know if the end client has paid the company that hired me. I sent an email to the end client trying to find out if they've paid the company who hired me, but I'm not sure if they're going to respond to me. I would very much like to file a mechanics lien, but I'm not sure if the law allows me to since this isn't a construction situation, per se. The roof inspections definitely have to do with the properties' maintenance and upkeep. ...Read More

Problem is the sub is sending in unauthorized and highly inflated invoices over the verbally agreed square foot prices plus non code items at $60 and hour plus materials.

My contractor did not follow the blue print and refuses to correct his mistake. 1. Porch was to have 4 posts, he did 6 to save cost on LVL. 2. Porch was to be 10’ wide, he did 9’ because he failed to calculate the roof pitch. 3. Windows are not centered. One window is 7” off from other window. 4. Prints call for one foot overhangs, he did none. I’m refusing to pay final payment until he corrects issues, which he refuses calling them “cosmetic” and the building passed code....Read More
