We supplied equipment and training and are completely done on the project, but it is on-going and will be for another year. Do we need to file a claim before the notice of completion?
No. If you are a subcontractor, you need to record your lien within 90 days of the completion of the entire project or within 30 days of recordation of a Notice of Completion, whicheve occurs first. But, if you done, and not getting paid, you don't need to sit around for another year to record your lien and pursue the money owed. If you would like discuss, feel free to call or email.
