A mechanic's lien can help protect your financial interests. It is essentially a document that a contractor, material-man or equipment provider can file with the county public records office stating that the owner of a property or the supervising contractor owes them money for services rendered. In order to successfully obtain a mechanic's lien, a subcontractor must claim their lien as instructed by the Colorado Revised Statutes. Claiming a mechanic's lien in Colorado involves multiple steps including delivering notice of intent to file a lien to the property owner and principal contractor and filing a lien statement in the county clerk's office and county recorder's office. Mechanic's liens must also be filed at or before a specific time.
