Materialman’s Liens
In short, a materialman’s lien gives a security interest in the property to someone who supplies materials used during work performed on said property. It’s important to know that subcontractors have no right to such a lien against residential property where the owner either resides or intends to reside. In the state of Tennessee, a materialman’s lien secures what’s referred to as the “contract price.”
Have questions about materialman’s liens as a whole? The law office of Cavett, Abbott & Weiss is ready to get started with your case. Get in touch with us today for more information.
Mechanics’ Liens
A mechanics’ lien can prevent you from selling your property or getting a loan. Instead of trying to navigate the murky waters of mechanics’ liens yourself, consult a civil litigation attorney instead. The law office of Cavett, Abbott & Weiss is here to walk you through every step of the process!
