Lien/Bond Claims

Washington construction lien and bond claims are a unique practice area. This area of law focuses on protecting the rights of contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and other parties involved in the construction industry. In Washington, a construction lien allows contractors and suppliers to place a claim against a property if they have not been paid for the work or materials they provided. This claim acts as a security interest on the property, potentially leading to foreclosure if the debt remains unpaid. Our attorneys with experience in construction lien claims can help their clients navigate the complex process of filing and enforcing these liens.

Bond claims, on the other hand, involve claims against surety bonds that are often required on public construction projects. These bonds act as a form of insurance, ensuring that contractors fulfill their obligations and pay subcontractors, suppliers, and workers. If a contractor fails to meet their obligations, bond claims can be filed to recover unpaid amounts. Our attorneys can help review and advise on—and handle claims over—bonds.
