When can a person execute a mechanic's lien and what is the procedure

If you are speaking about a mechanics lien each state has its own specific rules on who can do it and when. In my home state of NJ contractors, subcontractors and suppliers usually have the right to file a mechanics lien. Keep in mind that if a lien if filed when there is no legal basis, the owner can sue your company.
