So you Lived up to your end of the bargain. You performed work or shipped material to a job site. Now it’s time to get paid. Ahhh! If only it were that simple! Now your customers dodging your calls. Or suddenly there’s a problem with your workmanship or material? Or, perhaps their intention is to simply string you out long enough to where your lien rights expire. SOUND FAMILIAR? If your customer’s sending up red flags don’t wait until it’s too late.

You’ve taken the first step…you’re here. Now…let’s get your lien filed…and on time!

Guidance Recovery Services, LLC, (GRS) takes all the pain out filing a mechanics lien from start to finish. But what do we need from you our customer? Simply take a minute or two to complete our Mechanics Lien Information Form and fax or email it back to us. It’s that easy. Now…here’s what WE do after you complete the form:

• We review all of the information given to us by you, our client, on the Mechanics Lien information form, and examine it for accuracy.
• We complete a tract search of the real estate to obtain the legal description of the real estate, and identify any and all parties having an interest in the real estate, i.e. owner(s), mortgagees, agreements, other mechanics lien claimants, etc.
• We obtain the complete corporate business name and it's officers or registered agents, for the purpose of identifying, and sending notice to all parties having an interest in the real estate, job site, or project.
• We prepare your Contractors / Subcontractors Notice and Claim for Mechanics Lien, which displays all parties involved in the project. The formatting of our Notices frequently promotes payment as it places the debtor in question on notice, the General Contractor (if applicable) Lenders, Lease Holders, etc.
• Once we have prepared your Lien Claim, it is forwarded to you, our client via U.S. Priority Mail. Included are instructions on where to sign and notarize lien document, along with a self addressed return envelope for the return of your Mechanics Lien document to our office.
• Upon the return of said lien document to GRS, we mail out copies of your mechanics lien via certified mail, return receipt requested to all the parties that have an interest in the real estate where you performed work or furnished material.
• We subsequently bring the original mechanics lien document that you signed and notarized to the Recorder of Deeds in the County where the work was done and record it, making it a public record and a cloud against the title.
• A Confirmation Fax is then sent to your office citing the date your notices were mailed, along with the date your Mechanics Lien was recorded and the Document Number assigned to it by the County Recorder.
• The return address on the “Green Return Receipt Cards” is addressed to GRS, where said cards are kept on file unless our client requests otherwise.
• After it’s recordation, the original Mechanics Lien document is returned directly to our client from the designated County Recorders Office, a copy of which is also kept on file at GRS.
