Georgia Mechanic's Lien on your mind? First file your preliminary notice!
In many states, claimants must file a document known as a "preliminary" or "pre-lien" notice as a prerequisite to securing mechanic's lien rights. Georgia does not adhere to this requirement, so forgetting to file preliminary notice won't cost the claimant's lien rights. Under Georgia law, however, a person with a lien right may, at his or her option, file a preliminary notice. O.G.C.A. 44-14-361.3.
Preliminary notices are used by subcontractors and material suppliers who are not under a direct contract with the owner. A preliminary notice form follows a simple format that must include: (1) the name, address, and telephone number of the potential lien claimant; (2) the name and address of the contractor or other person at whose instance the labor, services, or materials were furnished; (3) the name of the owner of the real estate and include a description sufficient to identify the real estate against which the lien is or may be claimed; and (4) include a general description of the labor, services, or materials furnished or to be furnished. O.G.C.A. 44-14-361.3(a)(2)---(5).
The preliminary notice of lien rights must be filed with the clerk of superior court of the county in which the real estate is located within thirty (30) days after the date a party delivered any materials or provided any labor or services for which a lien may be claimed. O.G.C.A. 44-14-361.3(a)(1).
The Notice must also be served after filing on either the owner or contractor. A party filing a preliminary notice of lien rights (except a contractor) shall, within seven (7) days of filing the notice, send by registered or certified mail or statutory overnight delivery a copy of the notice to the contractor on the property named in the notice or to the owner of the property. The lien claimant may rely on the building permit issued on the property for the name of the contractor. O.G.C.A. 44-14-361.3(b).
As stated earlier, the preliminary notice is not a required document. A person having a lien may enforce the lien without filing a preliminary notice of lien. O.G.C.A. 44-14-361.3(d). However, filing and serving preliminary notice on an owner or prime contractor is good practice and can help preserve your lien rights, especially when there are multiple claimants.

I needed to create a deed of distribution for my probate case. The instructions as to what was needed on the caption page was lacking. Because of the lack of information I still had to have an attorney review the documents as I didn't feel confident in the instructions given.
Thank you for your review. Our deed of distribution package is designed as a strong primer to help people understand the process and prepare accurate documents. That said, probate filings can involve details that vary by court and jurisdiction.
We’re glad you sought attorney review when you weren’t completely sure—that’s exactly what we recommend. We always encourage customers to work with a qualified legal professional if they are not absolutely confident, since accuracy and acceptance are what matter most.

Good after I figured out the form process. Hopefully I won't be charged for two as I redid the request thinking I might have made a mistake in the first request.
Thank you for your feedback Joyce. We have reviewed your account and there have been no duplicate orders submitted. Have a great day!

I like that the quit claim form was fill in the blank on my computer instead of online, made it so much easier than having to do everything at once, at the mercy of the internet connection. Will refer others here.

The process for obtaining document itself was easy, and the included guide and example are great! I do have an issue with the format itself, though. The form has pre-defined text boxes, which cannot be altered without partially rebuilding the entire document. For the 'property description' field on the Mineral Deed form, the text box is not large enough for the rather lengthy legal description entered on my original plat. Fortunately, I have a copy of Adobe Pro, so I have been able to re-build the doc to accommodate this short-coming.
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on our legal form. We're pleased to hear that you found the process for obtaining the document and the included guide beneficial.
We understand and appreciate your concern regarding the formatting and size limitations of certain fields, especially the 'property description' field. Our forms are designed to adhere to specific formatting requirements that are often mandated for legal compliance. Making direct alterations to the document can result in them becoming non-conforming, which is why we advise customers to use an exhibit page when their legal description is extensive or does not fit.
