Using an Indemnity Agreement to Protect from Liens in Tennessee
Property owners can protect themselves from a mechanic's lien on their land by executing an indemnity agreement binding both the contractor and indemnity company. By entering into an agreement, the insurer agrees to pay the contractor any amount that could otherwise be enforced through a lien placed on the property. This way, the contractor will turn to the insurance agency and not the land owner for any deficiency that is owed.
This indemnity agreement is designed to be used by contractors and material providers as well as property owners. Although this form is designed for ease of use, it may not be appropriate in every circumstance. It is always a good idea to consult with an attorney when drafting a contract between two parties.
This article is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for the advice of an attorney. Please speak with an attorney for any questions regarding indemnity agreements.
Important: Your property must be located in Dekalb County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.
This Indemnity Agreement meets all recording requirements specific to Dekalb County.

Very simple to use. I am a private homeowner with no experience in such things and it was very easy to do which was quite a relief. Thank you.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I was very impressed with the speed at which information was retrieved on my very first search. Unfortunately, the county we were looking for is behind times and has not digitized its information. I will be using Deeds.Com again and appreciate that I was not charged for no information being returned back. Thank You David S
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

How about a single button zip download of the files displayed instead of downloading them one at a time?

The forms are very confusing when there is so much to download! Trying to keep track and make sure you have everything needed is terrible! I think I have everything but I was under the impression I would be filling it out online and with instructions... I am very disappointed to say the least!
Sorry to hear of your disappointment Helen. We have gone ahead and canceled your order and payment. We do hope that you are able to find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.

Fast, efficient, and helpful. I don't often have documents that need recording but I found Deeds.com incredibly handy. It cost me no more and probably less than if I'd gone in to do it myself. It was especially helpful during this Covid-19 stay-at-home time. It all happened within a couple of hours and I had my recorded copies in my hands.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
