The Notice of Intention to File a Mechanic's Lien shows a property owner or other party that the contractor is prepared to file for a lien if payment is not made on an outstanding balance for work completed.
The Notice should be directed to the property owner, lessor, guarantor, or other party responsible for any lien placed on the property. The document contains the name and contact information of the lien claimant, information about the subject property including a legal description, an itemized list of all materials delivered or labor furnished to date, and a breakdown of costs due. As an additional persuasive measure, include a draft copy of the petition for ex parte attachment to show the recipient the contractor is fully prepared to file the petition in court.
