Construction Lien law

  • Lien Foreclosure/Lien Foreclosure Defense

According to Florida’s Construction Lien Law (Section 713.001-713.37, Florida Statutes), those who work on your property or provide materials and services and are not paid in full have a right to enforce their claim for payment against your property. This claim is known as a construction lien. If your contractor or subcontractor fails to pay subcontractors, sub-subcontractors, or suppliers, those people who are owed money may look to your property for payment, even if you have already paid your contractor . If you fail to pay your contractor, your contractor may also have a lien on your property. If a lien is filed your property could be sold against your will to pay for labor, materials, or other services that your contractor may have failed to pay. This firm provides representation to associations, owners and lienors to foreclose on construction liens, or to defend against foreclosure actions.
