Construction Lien Lawyer Jacksonville, FL

Florida’s Construction Lien Law provides recourse for unpaid contractors, mechanics, subcontractors, suppliers, and other construction industry service and goods providers to secure unpaid debts from property owners, general contractors, developers, and others. Our Jacksonville construction lien lawyer advises you of your rights under the law and helps you file the appropriate lien. Often, simply filing the construction lien is enough to bring the other side to the negotiating table, or even for them to cut you a check.

Our attorneys can negotiate a settlement for the lien, helping you recover the money you’re owed and any other losses you may have incurred. We may advise mediation or guided negotiations to help us reach a compromise with the other party. Or, if the other side disputes the lien, we can pursue the claim in court.

It’s important to know that failure to meet any of the requirements of Florida’s Construction Lien Law may cause the court to reject your lien claim, leaving you with little legal recourse to get the money you’re owed. Trust our legal team to complete all required forms in precise detail, including the legal description of the property in question and the precise amount you’re owed. We preserve the integrity of your claim and seek all appropriate damages.
