Constructions Liens

We understand that sometimes obtaining payment on projects already performed on construction sites can be very difficult. There are times when you are not paid as a contractor and would like to enforce your rights. We work with all kinds of contractors on all kinds of projects to registry and perfect liens. Our goal is to obtain a settlement that is satisfactory to our clients that see them getting paid:

• Default proceedings, Settlement meetings, Setting liens for Trials
• Adjudication, Lien preservation, Arbitration
• Registering and Perfecting Construction Liens
• Early release of holdback

Enforcement of court orders

Once trials have been completed and costs are awarded or default judgments are obtained, the next step would be to obtaining what has been awarded. This will often involve conducting examinations inside of execution to find out if the debtor has the ability to pay the judgment. At this stage, we often ask questions about the debtor's income, assets, and liabilities in order to assess if the debtor has the ability to pay. Orders can be sought and obtained that would see accounts frozen. Contact us today if you would like to speak with a lawyer:

• Default Judgement and Motion to Set Aside Default Judgement
• Dealings with Sheriff and Bailiffs
• Liens, Certificate of Pending Litigation, Cautions
