Questions answered? Let's get started!
The Demand for Payment form is used by unpaid individual claimants to demand payment of their claim on an owner who is authorized to withhold funds under 53.083(a) of the Texas Property Code. The demand form also provides notice to the owner that all or part of the claim has accrued under Texas Code 53.053 or is past due under the agreement between the parties.
The claimant must also send a copy of the demand to the original contractor. If the original contractor intends to dispute the claim, he must give the owner written notice no later than the 30th day after the day he receives the copy of the demand. Failure to respond in a timely fashion implies approval of the demand and the owner must then pay the claim.
The Demand for Payment identifies the parties, the project, and relevant dates, services/materials, and fees. It is a required step in securing an eventual mechanic's lien on the owner's property if the claim remains unpaid after demand is sent.
The form does not require a notary seal or other verification, nor is it filed in the local land records. Instead, deliver the demand for payment via certified or registered mail, with a return receipt requested.
Each case is unique, and the mechanic's lien law in Texas can be complicated. Contact an attorney for complex situations, with specific questions about sending a demand for payment, or any other issue related to mechanic's liens.
Important: Your property must be located in Fayette County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.

Easy to use and able to individualize, which was important since I needed to print more than one doc. I just wish I had an option for a less expensive purchase - seemed like a lot for just a couple docs.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

It's hard having to change names on an account when someone dies. I called and was helped by a rep named Lilah. She was most helpful and comforting. Thank you again Lilah.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such kind words Susanne, we appreciate you.
Dale S. 5 out of 5 stars
I used the Affidavit of Death form provided by Deeds.com. The form and directions were easy to follow. I took the form to the county clerk's office for filing after getting it notarized. They accepted the form with no issues. A task that many people go to a lawyer complete was completed easily by me in less than an hour.
Thanks, Dale! Glad it worked exactly as it should — clear form, smooth filing, no issues at the clerk's office. That's the goal every time.

I'm an attorney. I see youve mixed up the terms "grantor" and "grantee" and their respective rights in this version. Anyone using it like this might have title troubles down the line.
Thank you for your feedback Jenifer, we have flagged the document for review.

World class forms, great for someone like me that has no clue what I'm doing! Always better to let the pros do it than think one knows it all and gets themselves in trouble!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
