Contractors, subcontractors, persons furnishing materials, artisans, and laborers who are not paid as promised for their work are entitled to put a lien on property on which they have bestowed labor or furnished materials. The value of the so-called \u201cmechanic’s lien\u201d is that of the labor performed and\/or the materials furnished.<\/strong><\/p>\n In the state of California, the mechanic’s lien is constitutionally guaranteed. However, there are specific procedures and tight deadlines involved in filing suit and enforcing liens, so attorneys familiar with the mechanic’s lien are indispensable.\u00a0If you are in the San Francisco Peninsula, South Bay, Alameda County, and San Francisco and would need advocacy \u2013 whether you are placing a lien or defending yourself against one, McDowall Cotter law firm based out of San Mateo can provide the representation you need to succeed.<\/p>\n
