I am an Office worker for a Commercial and Multi Family Painting company in Mesquite Texas

Our company does not work on any government jobs.
TexasGreetings,
I am a small contractor based in NY City. I was working on a big project for a client based in Ny City. We completed 80 % of the work. I was paid 15 % of the total contract in 09/19. I requested for another 45 % of payment in 02/20. I reached out to the client last week, 03/23/20 to get an update on the payment status. I was informed that due to Covid 19 all the operations has been closed and they are not sure when will they be able to make payment. I was informed that they are not sure if they will be able to make the payment and they might end up selling the building. What should I do to get my payment ?
Please advise.
Regards
New YorkWe live in NY and my husband is currently remodeling a bathroom in a home that no one lives in yet. Because of Covid 19, can he continue to work there even though there is a stay home recommendation? He will be working alone, no crew.
New YorkWith the new ordinance set in Branson Mo for public gatherings of 10 people or less. Does this ordinance apply to a construction site with over 100 employees?
MissouriI have a general contracting corporation. We have specialized in rebuilding the fire homes. With our profit we have bought several lots for spec homes. I now have a $10 million loan to a private lender where the interest is very high. I need to consolidate all my loans into a lower payment and deferred interest. I don’t want to lose my company like I did in 2008. I’ve worked very hard to get back up and running. Please help me
CaliforniaDue to Coronavirus concerns some California Counties have suspended over-the-counter document recording services until further notice. How soon should we file a lien if we will need to process it through the mail?
CaliforniaI am a subcontractor in California. I sent a certified mail copy of Mechanics Lien to the GC and Owner, but have not yet filed with County Recorder. GC told me sending a Mechanics Lien Release will not affect my rights to file a Mechanics Lien at a later date (job is not complete yet), and wants to settle after job is complete in two weeks. Is this true? Will I have enough time to file a Mechanics Lien after job completion (especially with COVID-19 shut downs)?
Sorry, duplicate question with added tags!
CaliforniaIf I am the client and I ask contractor to suspend services for 14 days because of corona outbreak. I understand that I have to pay for all personnel away from work, but not for the services they usually provide, is that correct !
AlabamaWe are a subcontractor in negotiations with our subcontract.
South CarolinaMy architect filed a Mechanic's lien 3/10/2020 (received 3/16/2020).
I think it is wise to (1) challenge the lien (for $18,912) under section 19 of the lien law for incomplete, defective, and deficient work, (2) Demand to Foreclose, and then make a special proceeding to discharge the lien. I am being charged for work that I did not consent to (I specifically asked that the work not be done) and for work that was not done at all. And, as the architect willfully exaggerated the lien I would request that he be responsible for attorneys’ fees, bond sums, and additional damages equal to the amount by which the lien is found to have been exaggerated.[10] N.Y. Lien Law §§ 39, 39-a. I am in NY County NY. How would I get this done procedurally? And, Courts are closed to to Corona virus.
