Construction Claims & Mechanics’ Liens

We protect our hardworking client contractors and suppliers by securing what is rightfully owed for their labor and material costs.

Whether it’s new commercial construction or remodeling, we represent all parties in mechanics’ lien litigation.

When you have successfully executed a project to the best of your ability, the last thing you want to deal with is nonpayment. Unfortunately, contractual obligations aren’t always fulfilled, and obtaining payment can be difficult with an adversarial owner or contractor.

When it comes to mechanic’s lien matters, we draw on deep experience with both contractors and suppliers of labor and materials.

The GP&A Way
Our firm has significant experience collecting judgments issued in construction-related claims, including through use of mechanics’ liens, payment and performance surety bonds, and filing Miller Act lawsuits. GP&A understands the value of your hard work and your need for fair payment.
Secured Payments

A mechanics’ lien is a powerful tool for obtaining payment on a construction project. When a lien is properly recorded, there is no better way to resolve a claim for payment. Our legal team works hard to create leverage and enhance your chance of recovery — and if necessary, proceed with the sale of a property in order to obtain the money owed to you.
