New York Construction Lien Attorneys NY

Mechanic’s lien litigation plays a pivotal role in protecting the rights of contractors, suppliers, and laborers involved in construction projects. When payments are delayed or disputes arise, filing a mechanic’s lien can ensure compensation by legally securing an interest in the property. At Chan Vitanza, we specialize in navigating the complexities of New York construction lien laws. From filing and enforcing liens to defending against wrongful claims, our experienced attorneys provide expert legal guidance tailored to your unique situation.

Understanding Mechanic’s Liens in NYC

A mechanic’s lien is a powerful legal tool that grants unpaid contractors or suppliers a claim against a property they worked on. In New York, strict guidelines govern how and when a lien can be filed, making legal representation essential to avoid costly mistakes. Whether you’re a subcontractor seeking payment or a property owner defending against a lien, Wilson & Chan’s skilled attorneys ensure your rights are protected throughout the process.

Enforcing and Defending Mechanic’s Liens in NY

Filing a mechanic’s lien is only the first step in securing payment. If the lien is contested or not promptly paid, it may require litigation to enforce. At Chan Vitanza LLP, we have extensive experience representing clients in lien foreclosure actions and other related disputes. For property owners, we also offer defense services to challenge fraudulent or exaggerated lien claims. Our attorneys work diligently to resolve disputes efficiently, whether through negotiation, arbitration, or litigation.
