Our company (we are a supplier) received a Conditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment from one of our customers with 3 properties listed. 1. Are we allowed to sign off on documents with multiple properties listed or should we have a document per each property addressed? 2. On the Conditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment, to our knowledge 2 out of 3 properties the job would be finished and completed for while the 3rd property we were informed the customer would want to place an order for tomorrow. May you please provide the guidelines or technicalities on if we can still sign the waiver for this scenario/ Conditional Final Payment Waivers?
TexasI performed work a complete siding wrap on 2 story home an 6 ft privacy fence around the home an have not been paid what type of lien is best for me to do so I can get paid
TexasI am an attorney in Houston. I have a client who has retained 10% against the general contractor. A supplier has timely filed $100K in liens. As I read the statute, the owner's liability is limited to the 10%.
The question is, does the supplier still have a lien on the property?
TexasI have a signed contract by the homeowner to perform water restoration on a house located in Texas, contract states " we will bill homeowner insurance company however if the insurance company denies the claim then the homeowner is responsible for the bill".

I notified the original owner of my intent to file a mechanics lien to secure payment. I received a letter from Homeowner attorney stating that his client no longer owns the house, and filing a lien subject me to legal peril.
Please advise
TexasOn October last year my boss sent/file the lien affidavit and claim. Customer never paid and now his lawyer contacted us saying that if we do not release it they'll proceed to file a suit.
We began with the lien notice, then they said that it was invalid and then the lawyer we were working with said that it was really valid our petition.
Please , I need some advice here
We are a mechanical HVAC contractor. Client refused to pay because we supposedly didnt comply . We proved that we were several times at the jobsite and customer wasnt ready for us to continue, so when he was actually ready we couldnt make it next day as he was requesting. Our scheudle was full and had already wasted time in several useless trips. Again, we have proof of that.
Texasi filed a lien on a customer and the customers attorney sent a letter of representation and also stated that “your mechanics lien on my client’s homestead is deficient and subject to attorneys fees for him to correct it” what dose this mean exactly and what should i do next ?
TexasMy organization performed work on a public project and did not receive payment. Can I file a bond claim if I did not file notices timely?
TexasWe were subcontracted to furnish and install equipment on a residential project in August. The job was completed on August 10,2021. The final invoice was sent to the client on August 12,2021. Now, the client is not responding to calls and emails. According to the dates I saw online the Lien should have been filed yesterday - November 15th. Am I no longer eligible to file a lien?
TexasDate to file a lien has passed. Is there anything we can do now?
TexasI DID some labor work for my dad's girlfriend. We agreed upon $15 hr and I worked for hours. She has been giving me cash here and there. However, now that the job is complete she is arguing over the hours I worked and how much is actually still owed to me. Now she has sent a check via certified mail and on the memo line has written Cash Paid $775\Paid in Full. The check amount is$225. She still owes $1636.00. I seriously need to cash the check as she hasn't paid me anything since mid October. There is no contact in writing as this was only a verbal agreement. Could you tell me the law in Texas regarding this type of matter?
TexasHow do I collect payment if the customer wrote paid in full on the check. I haven't cashed it yet as she still owes me over $1,600.00 and the check is only for $225.00.
TexasHere's the situation. If we start renovations next year on our home, and work isn't done by October 1, we can't have the money sitting in our checking account when our daughter applies for financial aid for college.
So, if possible, would like the ability to set up at some point in the process, this $draw fund.
TexasWe invoice retainage in August for a TX project. We're getting a Levelset notice Lien deadline is 11/15. We want to know why this deadline is now instead of 12/15.
TexasI'm a subcontractor/ handyman. I been working on a complete remodel on a small guest house in the customers back yard..told him it would take a little over a week to complete..at the end the customer went out of town and had said he wanted to stop until he got back. Now he's back and said he's not paying cause we didn't meet the deadline
TexasI have a situation where I hired a company to build a pool, deck, outdoor kitchen, spa and fire pit. It has been 10 months since the dig and we have partial tile/coping and gunite and nothing else and company abandoned the project. We have paid them a little over $69K out of the $123K project and only about 20% of the work has been completed. I am now getting phone calls from the Excavation crew, tile/coping crew that they will put a lien on my house for non-payment when it was not for me to pay - it was the pool company ( they had my money). How can i recover my paid funds to finish my pool project and not have a lien on my property since it was not my fault the sub-contractors whom I do not have a contract with did not get paid? I am at a loss....
