Preliminary notice
A notice sent to inform parties of involvement and protect lien rights.
Preliminary notices are critical for establishing legal rights to file a lien in case of non-payment. They notify owners and general contractors of the involvement of subcontractors or suppliers, ensuring transparency and reducing the risk of payment disputes. Properly managing these notices can prevent lengthy legal processes and secure financial interests.
