Alaska Notice of Right to Lien Form

Fill out the fields to download the free Alaska Notice of Right to Lien Form. This form may be used by any party on a private, residential construction project to provide preliminary notice in Alaska.

Who should use the Notice of Right to Claim Lien form

Providing preliminary notice is not a prerequisite to filing an Alaska mechanics lien. However, the Notice of Right to Lien form may be used by General Contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers to provide extra protection on a construction project in Alaska.

When parties provide this form to the property owner before they begin work on the project, it serves as proof that the owner had knowledge of your presence and work on the project. This is valuable if a lien enforcement action is necessary.

Construction parties may also record the notice with the recorder’s office in the Alaska borough where the property is located. If recorded, the notice of right to lien can extend the time in which a project participant may file a valid and enforceable lien if a notice of completion is filed on the project.

How to use this form

After downloading the form, fill out the form fields completely and accurately. Once completed, the form may be sent to the property owner before you begin work on the project. In addition, you may file with the county clerk in the Alaska county where the property is located. Recording may take place at any time after signing the contract, or after first furnishing labor or materials to the project.

This form was prepared by construction attorneys to meet the requirements found in Alaska Stat. §34-35-064.
