North CarolinaI am a North Carolina Interior Design / Food Service Design Company that has been engaged by a Georgia Architectural firm to do an Interior Design / Food Service package. A written / signed approval was issued by this company to mine. The work was urgently required & we spent many months and much overtime to get them an 80% set of Revit Design Development Drawings. Our invoice is now more than 7 months overdue. Initially we got the run around, but now we are being ignored.
North CarolinaAbout the use of your "Unconditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment Form"? See situation below.
I have completed a home renovation project using a general contractor. The contractor used subcontractors. I will have a meeting to make a final payment. At that meeting, I want an unconditional release from the contractor for all claims, liens etc. by the Contractor AND any subcontractor or materials providers the Contractor used on the project. Does your North Carolina form "Unconditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment" accomplish that objective? Thank you. Hal Murry (hal.murry@gmail.com)
North CarolinaWe have a project that we completed for a brewery located on an apartments property. We attempted to collect payment for the project that we had completed about 3 months ago but were told that they (brewery) was waiting for a payment from the apartment complex before they would pay us. We filed a lien on the apartment to ensure we would get paid, but the Brewery says that the apartment won't give the brewery their disbursement now because we filed a lien. So they asked us to release the lien so the apartment will pay them and then they will pay us. As far as we are concerned our payment was not contingent on them receiving this money from the apartment so they should pay our invoice as they agreed to 30 day terms. What do you think would be the best course of action?
North CarolinaWe have begun work on a project in NC. We gave notice and immediately received a Subordination of lien form. Is there any reason to not sign the form, any wording we should strike first?
North CarolinaI am a subcontractor that works with GCs and property owners. I purchase materials from my suppliers and wanted to ask if I should be requesting lien waivers for every invoice paid or find all invoices related to a specific project and request a waiver for the total amount of materials purchased for that project? I also subcontract out the labor so the same question would apply.

North CarolinaIn North Carolina, the statues state if I have no employees (or less then 3 to be technical), I do not have to carry WC. Now, at the time of being hired and on the job, I did have WC, as this GC claims his insurance company requires it. I keep trying to explain the law to him and that I do not. I finished the job, and while waiting 2 almost 3 months for everyone else to get done and pass inspections, the policy has now expired. He claims I need a new policy put in place just for them to write the check because their insurance company will audit them and it has to be there that day. I said no, it has to be there while I am on the job, not when you finally get around to writing checks. I do not plan to work for this client any longer and do not need to spend $1,000+ dollars just for them to mail out a check according to the law as I know it. Is there something I am missing? Or is there a way to make him send it? Lein the job? Have a lawyer send a letter demanding he is illegally withholding the moneys? What can I do other then wasting $1,000 to get 2?

North CarolinaHi Lawyers:
I hired a General Contractor to build an "in law" house on my North Carolina property. There was no officially set delivery schedule on the time and materials-ish contract. The project is near done, but has taken 2 years, through multiple excusable and inexcusable delays. We had a serious talk, and I demanded he needed to communicate ahead of additional; work, and delays. He agreed, claiming he had gone through a "personal rough time". 3 months afterwards, more delays, causing the electrical utility to postpone connection. The GC has stopped returning calls for the last 2-3 weeks. He failed to provide the utility (Duke) a response to required paperwork.
Do I need to take any action before getting a lawyer to help with this ? What kind of law firm?
Thanks
North CarolinaMy company filed a lien of real property against the GC, he sold the property, and prior to the sale, we failed to file notice of lien agent. (NC lien laws are way different then our home state FL). The new owner sent us a letter telling us to cancel the lien, or they will move forward with a personal liability against us.
So do we have any recourse? Could we file an intent to foreclose? and then move forward with a foreclosure lawsuit? or would we be better off filing a breach of contract? Or are we too late to do anything?
What do we file? The final invoice was sent 11/30/2021,
