Helping Contractors Obtain Payment For Work Performed
At the law firm of David E. Pettyjohn, Attorney at Law, I handle mechanic’s liens for clients in Northwest and Western Missouri, including Kansas City, MO. I also serve clients in Independence, St. Joseph, Richmond, and Harrisonville in the counties of Cass, Platte, Clay, Jackson, Lafayette, Ray and Buchanan.
A mechanic's lien is filed on behalf of a contractor that has performed improvements on a property and has not been paid in full. The lien may be obtained against a property owner for the value of any authorized construction, materials and labor used to either repair or erect a building or other structure on that owner’s property. Missouri statutes give priority to the payment of mechanic’s liens over many other debts, and I help contractors and suppliers alike seek payment through mechanic’s lien filing. Additionally, I can assist property owners and others with mechanic’s lien defense litigation.
As a trial attorney in practice for over 25 years, I have a wealth of experience in handling mechanic’s liens for property owners, contractors and suppliers who are seeking the lien. I take plaintiff liens on a contingency basis, meaning that I only get paid if I secure payment for you. Contact Me Today to ensure that your mechanic’s lien is handled properly.
