NEVADA SERVICES

RIGHT TO LIEN NOTICE/PRELIMINARY NOTICE 

In the state of Nevada, it’s mandated that contractors and material suppliers deliver a Right to Lien/Preliminary Notice within 31 days of first providing labor, services, or materials to a project. This notice alerts the owner of the property that someone is working on their project, and in the event that they’re not paid, they have the legal right to record a mechanic’s lien against the property. It’s essential for contractors and material suppliers to deliver a Right to Lien/Preliminary Notice, if they want to ever be able to collect in the event of a non-payment. At CNS, we process thousands of notices every month and have perfected a system to give our customers efficient and accurate completed requests.

MECHANICS LIEN RECORDING

A Mechanic’s Lien provides the contractor or material supplier a right of foreclosure of the property if they are not paid and is used as a collection tool to receive monies owed. At CNS, we record hundreds of liens a month throughout Nevada and understand the particulars involved with each case.

BOND CLAIM

Filing a bond claim is common across many states, including Nevada. It’s an assurance used on state public works, and large commercial or residential jobs. In the event that the general contractor fails to fulfill its obligations, the bond will be used to pay the suppliers, subcontractors, and ultimately finish the project.

MILLER ACT

Enacted in 1935, the Miller Act requires general contractors of Federal construction projects to post Performance Bonds and Payment Bonds (“PNP Bonds”) to guarantee the performance of their contractual duties and the payment to subcontractors and material suppliers. Miller Act bond claims are universal across all states, although the nuances of state-specific Little Miller Acts may vary.

LIEN RELEASES

Once you receive payment and you no longer need the lien recorded, CNS can help you release your lien. If you are told to release the lien by an attorney or judge after the lien has been paid or timeframes have expired, and you do not do so, you may face penalties, avoid these by having CNS timely release your lien.
