The Sacramento Business Journal just published an article last week discussing the mechanic lien and preliminary notice law changes in taking effect this January 2011 in California, and warning that “Some worry that change in law might catch construction industry off-guard.”
Mechanic Lien and Construction Notice laws and rules are complicated as is, making it difficult for contractors and suppliers to keep up. However, things get much more complicated when the laws change.
