Steps Before Filing a Lawsuit to Enforce an Alabama Mechanic's Lien

Lawsuits can be long, emotionally draining, and expensive. Therefore, before filing suit, first attempt an informal settlement with the other party. When dealing with mechanic's liens in Alabama, a good technique is to send the owner notice of intention to sue to enforce the lien if timely payment is not made first.

When the amount involved exceeds $50.00, actions for the enforcement of liens may be brought in the circuit court having jurisdiction in the county in which the property is situated. Ala. Code Ann. 35-11-220. In all other cases actions to enforce such liens shall be brought before the district court in the county in which the property is situated. Id.

Any action for the enforcement of the lien declared in this division must be commenced within six months after the maturity of the entire indebtedness secured thereby. Ala. Code Ann. 35-11-221. Therefore, ensure the notice is sent within this timeline to prevent inadvertently waiving the right to claim a lien.

The notice identifies the parties, the location of the project, the nature of materials and services provided for the project, and relevant dates, fees, and payments. Deliver the notice to the responsible party via USPS Certified mail.

If the notice does not accomplish a settlement, be prepared to hire an attorney and sue. Lien enforcement suits, when brought in the circuit court, shall be commenced by summons and complaint. Ala. Code Ann. 35-11-222. The complaint shall contain a description of the property on which the lien is claimed, and shall allege the facts necessary to entitle the plaintiff to the lien and the enforcement thereof; in all other respects, the pleadings, practice and proceedings shall be the same as in ordinary civil actions. Id.

This article is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for the advice from an attorney. Please speak with an Alabama attorney for any questions regarding lien notices or filing suit to enforce a lien.

Important: Your property must be located in Mobile County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.

Well, we are 10 days from leaving the country for months and needed to notarize and record deed changes to our rental properties. We worried about USPS, UPS, DHL, etc. and hardcopies in the County's bureaucrats' hands. Soooo, we learned of Deeds.com from the County web site via one of the bulk digital recorders telling me about Deeds.com. Hit their site, read their instructions, concluded my tiny brain and decrepit abilities could handle the chore. WITHIN AN HOUR OF UPLOADING EVERYTHING INCLUDING C.C. FOR PMT IT WAS RECORDED AND I printed out copies. WORTH the $$ in speed, convenience and PEACE of mind. Pardon the loud trumpeting.

The program fields should allow the customer to change font size and allow additional space for information to be place on the Deed. Not Bad, still needs improvement.

Reply from Staff

Thank you for your feedback Maurice. Unfortunately we do not make the requirements for things like font size and margins, we only make the documents to be compliant with them.

This is my third time using Deeds.com and they don't disappoint. Their customer service is outstanding - absolutely excellent - via messages, I communicated with them immediately and 24/7 - on weekends and at night. I would not even try another service as they provide excellence which is so rare these days.

I was trying to register a financial statement (non real estate document). There was no link or statement on the home page to indicate that this could be done. All I had to do was to create an account, name and then upload the document. It took me over a day and several phone calls to the local deed recording office to try to figure this out. A simple link or statement to this effect would have saved me a lot of time
