This book presents for the first time, the construction mechanics lien statutes of the fifty states and the District of Columbia. Also presented is the Miller Act, which requires payment bonds for the protection of subcontractors and suppliers on federal projects. The book was edited by James Acret, of counsel to Thelen Reid & Priest in Los Angeles, and recognized nationwide as a leading authority on construction law.Also included is Acret's Simplified Summary of the mechanics lien laws along with a treatment of stop notice and payment bond remedies. The catchlines to the statutes were also written by Acret.Since every state has its own mechanics lien statute, learning acquired in one state cannot be transferred to another without a careful study of its particular statute.Since most states impose preliminary notice requirements, a contractor, design professional, or material supplier can't afford to wait until after a collection problem arises to look up the applicable law. Likewise, developers, sureties, and construction lenders must take steps to protect themselves at the beginning of the development process rather than after payment problems have arisen. Developers, contractors, subcontractors, design professionals, building material dealers, construction lenders, and sureties will find this book indispensable.

Odd though it may be, a mechanics lien has little to do with auto mechanics. Instead, it involves builders. Contractors and subcontractors, materials suppliers and equipment suppliers -- these are the folks who use mechanics liens.A mechanics lien enables workers to collect debts owed for work or materials they've contributed to a project. By making a legal claim on the real estate of an owner, the lien ensures that workers don't leave a project empty-handed if the owner refuses payment. Consequently, it's important that both laborers and owners understand the ins and outs of these liens.Whether a reader is a general contractor, a carpenter, a lumber supplier or simply a diehard fan of home improvement projects, Everybody's Guide to Mechanics' Liens is the place to go for strategies and answers.The book does not cover public property owners and publicly-funded projects.
