We are a subcontractor on a new construction project. GC is requiring an unconditional lien waiver be signed before paying us. I say that's backwards. Is it
legal for them to require that signature? I think this is like double jeopardy: If I sign the waiver and they don't pay, I can't lien. If I don't sign the w...Read More
