Releasing a Mechanic's Lien in Missouri
When a mechanic's lien debt has been paid off in full and there is no valid reason to continue encumbering the property, the claimant files a release to free the owner's land from the lien.
Under R.S.M.O. 429.120, whenever any debt, which is a lien upon any building or other improvement, shall be paid or satisfied, the creditor, if required, shall file an acknowledgment of such satisfaction with the clerk of the circuit court.
Failure to properly discharge a lien can lead to civil liability. If any creditor refuses to enter a satisfaction within ten (10) days after payment and request, he shall be liable to any person injured, to the amount of such injury and cost of suit. R.S.M.O. 429.130.
The lien release form contains the following information: 1) lien claimant's name and address; 2) owner's name and address; 3) address of the property subject to the lien; and 4) information about the filed lien such as date of filing, location filed (whether with the clerk of court or county recorder's office), and amount of the lien. The release should be filed with the same office where the original lien was filed or recorded.

I had a great experience using Deeds.com to file my legal document. The whole process was simple and easy to follow. The website walks you through each step, and everything is explained clearly. At one point, I had to resubmit my documents, but even that was quick and easy. There were clear instructions, and I had no trouble making the changes and sending them again. The communication was great too. I was kept updated the whole time, and any questions I had were answered fast. If you need to file legal documents and want a stress-free way to do it, I definitely recommend Deeds.com. They made the whole process smooth from start to finish.

The forms are nice; however, they do not display the "th" after the day or the second digit of the year. You can type them in, but they will not print out. I just left them blank and will handwrite.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
