Questions answered? Let's get started!
A lien waiver is used by a lien claimant or potential claimant to forfeit his or her right to a lien upon a progress payment or final payment. The waiver can be conditional, meaning that the payment must clear the bank before the lien is released, or unconditional, meaning the lien is released upon the recording of the waiver regardless of whether or not the claimant is ever actually paid.
A waiver and release given by a claimant or potential claimant is unenforceable unless it substantially complies with the applicable form described in Sec. 53.284 of the Texas Property Code.
The four types of lien waivers in the State of Texas include:
- Conditional Waiver and Release on Progress Payment;
- Unconditional Waiver and Release on Progress Payment;
- Conditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment; and
- Unconditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment
Let's say a contractor finishes work on a project where she recorded a lien. The owner wants the lien released, and writes a check for the full amount of the balance due. The contractor offers a conditional waiver and release on final payment, which protects her interests in case the bank refuses to honor the check. As long as the check is good, the lien gets released. Otherwise, the claimant retains the lien until the responsible party finds another way to pay the bill.
Under Sec. 53.284(d), if a claimant or potential claimant is required to execute a conditional waiver and release in exchange for or to induce the final payment, the waiver becomes valid ONLY AFTER payment in good and sufficient funds, meaning that a single or joint payee check must clear the bank on which it's drawn.
The document identifies the parties, the project, the work and/or materials provided, and relevant dates and payment amounts. Sign it in front of a notary and submit it to the local recording office.
In summary, a lien waiver is an important tool, but take care to use the proper form. The wrong choice can lead to a loss of lien rights before receiving payment. Each case is unique, and Texas lien law can be complicated. Contact an attorney for complex situations, with questions about waivers, or any other issues related to mechanic's liens.

This was easy to use and only contained one glaring error-where to send the completed form to finish the process. I’ve completed the form, does this mean I get the amended deed sent to me? I think not.
Your insights are invaluable to us and help us strive for better service. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

It's worth the cost to download the fill in the blank forms. So quick and easy. The lady I spoke to on the phone was super nice and very helpful. She deserves a medal for being so patient with me.

Website is easy to use. I ordered the form, filled it out and uploaded it for recording. My only critique is that you can't preview the form before ordering and paying for it. I ordered a Deed of Full Reconveyance form only to find out I needed the Substitution of Trustee and Deedn of Reconveyance form instead. So I wasted $22 on the wrong form.
Thank you for your feedback. Order and payment for the incorrect order has been canceled. Have a wonderful day.

The DEEDs website is very easy to navigate and find the required documents. I have not yet had an opportunity to review the documents I purchased and downloaded. That is the reason I have assigned a rating of four stars. I fully hope that can raise my rating to five stars after I've used those documents.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
