Questions answered? Let's get started!
During the construction process, a property owner (or his or her lessee) may ask the contractor for a lien waiver in exchange for a full or partial payment.
Michigan defines four permissible types of lien waivers. These include: (1) Partial Unconditional Waiver, (2) Partial Conditional Waiver, (3), Full Unconditional Waiver, and (4) Full Conditional Waiver. M.C.L. 570.1115(9).
Use a partial unconditional waiver of lien when the claimant receives an agreed-upon payment for his or her contract from the owner, lessee, or designee. M.C.L. 570.1115(3). This partial payment may be a scheduled disbursement, be tied to a progress point in the improvement process, or another circumstance as set out in the original contract.
A waiver under this section takes effect when a person makes payment relying on the waiver, unless at the time the payment was made, the person making the payment had written notice that the payment or consideration for the waiver has failed (i.e., the check bounced at the bank). M.C.L. 570.1115(6).
Lien waiver forms must be in writing and must comply with Michigan law to be valid. Include the names of the contractor and the property owner, and identify the property and dates covered by the recorded lien.
Lien waivers can be confusing, and issuing the wrong type of waiver (or issuing one too early) can lead to dire consequences for construction liens. Contact an attorney with questions about waivers or any other issues related to liens in Michigan.
Important: Your property must be located in Bay County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

I never could even think to solve an important issue involving even overseas individuals without even a lawyer within 24 h. This service works for real and I'll keep using it from now for any future needs, referring to and proposing it as a legitimate, trusted real Optimus service. I'm extremely satisfied and being a Public Official myself I got to say that these guys have really impressed me!
Thank you!

It was everything that I needed. The county clerk's office kept telling me to get a lawyer for this form, but I didn't need one. Saved myself hundreds of dollars. I've used them many times.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

not enough room for legal description. Wouldn't allow me to enter widow status in owner box. Not clear who to send it to so I printed it out and will ask the notary who I use for recording it.
Thank you!
