TexasI am trying to find out if there is a legal document or process that I can provide or go through in order to prevent my subs vendors from filing a lien, when subs have been paid... Legally speaking, if a vendor files a lien or sends an intent notice do they have to provide payment records to me? Do i need to supply payment records if I don't have a Conditional lien waiver? Also, should my company require all CLW's to be signed before releasing payments?
TexasHello, I see that Texas, Wyoming, and Mississippi are the states that require notarization for lien waivers. If those particular forms require notarization, are the forms still able to be executed via docusign? Thanks so much, Christen
TexasI work for several entities that are development companies. Additionally, we are the part owner and the GC. We are a small company that has grown rapidly within 5 years. I have received intents to lien from various vendors of our subcontractors, whom have been paid but have not paid their vendors. If i do not have a conditional lien waiver for progress payment executed what do I need to provide the vendors inorder to prevent lien? Our contracts state the subs are responsible for their materials, tools, supplies and equipment costs and that amount is to be included in their bid packages- so when we generate and execute a contract the subs and my company have a meeting of the minds that they are responsible for covering their vendor fees. Am I missing a step? Should conditional lien waivers on progress payments be executed at time of contract execution? Are their any documents I should be providing and having my subs execute in order to prevent liens?
TexasHello, I am a general contractor in Texas and a subcontract is emailing me a scanned copy of the unconditional lien wavier signed and notarized. Am I right in requesting he mail me the original letter that was signed and notarized? Or is a scanned copy valid?
TexasAs a GC I have always provided Conditional and Unconditional Lien Waivers to our clients on a commercial job.
There is a new job that is coming up and the client is also requesting Conditional and Unconditional Lien Waivers from our Subs, Vendors, Manufactures, and pretty much anyone who will be tied to this job per payment request.
In the state of Texas, are the lien waivers required from our Subs and vendors to submit to the client in request for progress payment asides from the Final payment?
Thank you.
TexasNew to the construction loan process. If I'm purchasing materials and supplies for the project from online vendors (i.e. vistaprint, global industries, amazon, etc.) do I need to get a lien release from those suppliers?
TexasFor a lien waiver (conditional or unconditional) to be valid, does it need to have the relevant pay application / invoice attached? If so, is there a specific article that speaks to this being a requirement? The statement on the statutory form "The signer warrants that the signer has already paid or will use the funds received from this progress payment to promptly pay in full all of the signer's laborers, subcontractors, materialmen, and suppliers for all work, materials, equipment, or services provided for or to the above referenced project in regard to the attached statement(s) or progress payment request(s)." leads me to believe that this is a requirement however I wanted confirmation and to see if there are any other references I can point at showing this requirement.
TexasI have placed leins on a client and now through level set they have requested a Leon waiver. I am unsure of what that means as they have not paid yet so I am not willing to waive the lein
TexasThe General contractor is pushing us to sign a Final Unconditional waiver before the check clears the bank. We have explained that we do not sign any unconditional waivers until payment has cleared. They are refusing to pay. What do we need to do?
TexasHi, I'm new to the flooring Sub contracting industry and I don't know the exact difference between a conditional and unconditional waiver? I think I'm just not fully grasping the concept for some reason. If our GC's require vendor waivers for the previous month, to be summitted during the current months billing, do I use a conditional or unconditional waivers? Also, if I want to bulk multiple months such as July and August to be submitted with October's billing, which waiver do I use?
TexasThis company is trying to sell this location but can't because there is a lien still on file. we had signed an unconditional waiver for the amount they had paid of 19k leaving a balance of 47k. Since we signed the waiver when picking up the first check, does that mean we don't have lien rights If we decide to take to court?
TexasI filed a Texas bond claim for the amount of $20,996.00 for payment application #3. The GC reached out to me and offered me a check for $5,000.00 for PA#3 and for me to sign a conditional lien waiver on progress payment to release the check to us and once we deposit the check the GC wants a unconditional on progress payment. Since our pay app #3 was for $20,996.00 and not for the $5,000.00, should we accept the $5,000.00 and wait for the rest of the amount? Or should I not accept the check for $5,000.00 and let the GC know that we will only accept a check for the correct amount of $20,996.00 that we billed for pay app #3?. I'm scared that our bond claim voids or cancels if I accept the $5000.00 and lose out on the remaining balance the GC owes us.
