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 subcontractor or material supplier has 20 days after beginning work or delivering materials to serve you a Preliminary Notice. If the notice is late, the claimant loses lien rights for work done or materials delivered more than 20 days before the notice. Laborers are not required to give you a Preliminary Notice.
You must immediately give written notice to employees if they are fired, laid off, taking a leave of absence, or if their job status changes. You should keep a copy for your records.
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.
Preliminary Notices must be filed 20 days from first furnishing labor or materials.

A Preliminary Notice is required from subcontractors and suppliers if there is a chance they may need to file a lien. The notice states that the subcontractor or supplier has provided, or will provide, goods and services to improve your property and could file a lien claim if they are not paid.
