Although not legally required in California, a Notice of Intent to Lien is one of the most effective ways to get paid before filing a mechanics lien. Its a final, serious warning that payment is due, without immediately escalating to legal proceedings.
A preliminary notice confirms to the owner and general contractor that the filer has provided something that warrants payment and signifies the right to file a mechanics lien against the project property if an invoice goes unpaid.
A Preliminary notice (P-notice) - an activity or condition that will become permanent and will result in a chart revision. A P-notice will always be followed later by a notice of effect. A Temporary notice (T-notice) - conditions that will not become permanent.
In California, a lien must be enforced within 90 days of filing. If the lien is not perfected within this timeframe, it becomes unenforceable, and the contractor or supplier may lose the right to payment through the lien process.
