OhioPreliminary Notice
Hello, I'm a subcontractor doing underground optic fiber. My company finished a work in Medina, Ohio, in November 2022. We were subcontracted by another subcontractor (not prime contactor) that was hired by Medina Fiber and that owes us around $15k . The contract is most likely from the city of Medina since this is work done in the streets, not a private residency. My question is, in this case, can we put a lien on the fiber? How do we go about this? What documents or information is needed? Thank you...Read More

I am a General contractor and have a few jobs I did for a client and they are haggeling over payment. I wanted to know if these states there would be any issues with filing liens in. All work was completed in September - December of 2022 but I do know that some states require pre lien filings and other requirements that could not allow you to place a lien. The states are: OH, RI, MA, NH, NY. Can you please let me know if I am ok to file liens at this time on these locations in the above states or if there are any states that legally I can't file the lien in? Thank you....Read More

From: Alex Kohler Sent: Thursday, May 5, 2022 3:15 PM To: Tina Rhodus Subject: Re: FW: 6732 Maverick Drive / Lot 21 West Ridge - 22-00421 Hi Tina, Thanks for reaching out and I hope all is going well! When it comes to a Notice of Commencement in Ohio, there is no specific notice or process to release the document with the county records. There is a possibility that a sworn affidavit with recording information and a statement of work completed could suffice, but it's hard to tell without proper statutory guidance. Since this is a bit of a unique situation, I would suggest posting in our Legal Expert Center, where you can post your scenario and get some feedback from our attorney network on potential next steps. Please let me know if you have any questions and I'll be happy to assist! Have a great day and stay safe!

Thank you for taking my first question. I would like to know how a homeowner goes about firing the contractor to insure he has nothing that could come back to the homeowner. Does the homeowner need a lawyer to fire the contractor when a signed contract is involved? What if the contractor attempted to write a new contract with 48 hours to sign? The contract was to replace the original contract with part of the original contract removed. ...Read More

We are homeowners who hired a general contractor for house renovations. We both (homeowner and contractor) signed the contract so a construction loan could be secured. The contractor has failed in so many ways there are too many to mention. According to the contractor, he is owed $25,000 but not the homeowner but the bank will not relinquish the funds, because, in the bank's opinion, the contractor had not completed the work he is requesting to be paid for. The contractor tried to write a new contract after not being paid for the purpose of asking for $20,000 to complete the job with one exception, he took it upon himself to use this new contract and eliminate a large job that was in the original contract. If we signed the new contract he would send a few workers to finish what in his opinion would complete the work and give us 48 hours to sign the new contract. We respectfully denied the new contract, and this was done without the knowledge of the bank that holds the construction loan. Within the contract, we had specifically asked for a particular manufactures siding, and the contractor had the audacity to bring and install a different manufactures siding. The siding the homeowner requested was even in the contract that both parties signed. The contractor even lied about being a certified installer of the product he installed, and the reason I say that is because the manufacturer of the siding that was installed will not warranty their product due to all the installation problems. We found out later the manufacturer had no certified installers in Ohio. Eventually, when pressured the contractor admitted he was not a certified installer. So what are a homeowner's rights in a situation like ours? ...Read More
