Why Us?
Are your company’s Preliminary Notice, Mechanic Lien and Collection Procedures not working? Give our service a try.
We’re different, and we can help you Lien Smarter…and Get Paid.
We Do All The Work
Getting bogged down with technical lien and notice forms is a waste of your company’s resources. Outsource that work to us.
You give us your project information, and we’ll:
• Get the Project’s Legal Property Description
• Get the Property Owner listed in Public Records
• Prepare The Form and File / Deliver It Where Required
• Save Evidence of Filing, Service or Delivery
We prepare your mechanic liens, bond claims, preliminary notices and other lien documents for low flat fees. That means you pay one price that is all-inclusive.
The Lien Pilot
We lead the industry in helping contractors and suppliers manage and understand their mechanic lien and preliminary notice deadlines across the nation.
Our award-winning Lien Pilot calculates your notice and mechanic lien deadlines, and notifies you of filing requirements via email. You can also subscribe to these notifications via email, or export them to your desktop or Outlook calendar.
The Lien Pilot tracks delivery of notices sent Certified Mail through the United States Postal Service API, and provides contractors and suppliers with legal information relevant to their project.
Use of our mechanic lien and preliminary notice filing service includes free access to our Lien Pilot for related projects.
