CaliforniaMy deceased mother fell behind with her HOA assessments. The HOA and their lawyer filed a mechanics lien against t he property. The HOA and their lawyer filed a lawsuit against my mother.

WisconsinContractor ruined my floors, walls, flooded the house, cut holes in the wrong spots in the tub insert. He was in my home May-July (he stated this job would take 3 days) we had no contract signed and was told to complete the job or he would be let go with no pay at all. Once he left you still could not use the shower. Now I see we have a mechanical lien on my house.
What can I do?

MinnesotaLien filed. 95k. Can I foreclose the property in Indiana?
IndianaAfter several attempts to collect payment from the customer through all email documentations and phone calls, we were at the last attempt to be able to file a lien since it was the 90 days after project completion. We submitted the lien through the website. The customer has not stated that he was advised not to pay since there was no pre-lien sent out.

MontanaWe filed a lien on Nov 17, haven't heard what the next step is....
Arizona10 years ago I moved into a house and also got a business license to do one on one hair services. The house next door to me was dilapidated infested overgrown foliage used as a dump site and I came home one day after years of petitions and working with the city to a rat in my home causing me loss of income and reputation. At that point I threaten lawsuit against the bank and was given the quitclaim deed of the actual owner. This is what the city needed because he had been denying ownership and they immediately bulldoze the property. After which I put flowers and tomatoes on the lot to deter the vagrants and trash . Once I realize that it was changing the neighborhood in a positive way as well as employing people I invested money time and labor in keeping this stop. Now it is 5 years later and I have sent invoices to the owner a task before they come back as undeliverable. I would like to know how to file a mechanic's lien against this land as it would probably eventually go up for sale and I would never be reimbursed. By the way I have put over $25,000 in cost of goods and labor into this property
