Name of Person Who Will Sign Your Lien
*This document must be signed by you*. Please indicate the name of the authorized person who will sign the lien for you or your company. The lien will be sent to you for signature and notarization which may occur through an online platform, or if you prefer, by printing and signing notarizing in person.
Title of the person signing:
Regarding the person who will sign the document: Please select that person's role at the organization which is filing this lien. NOTE: If you are signing on behalf of a business, "Individually" is likely NOT an acceptable answer. If you are filing a lien on your own behalf, and not on behalf of a business, then "Individually" may be an appropriate selection.

Please indicate whether your contract is for an agreed sum, as opposed to an hourly contract, cost plus contract, etc.

Who should you send this notice to?
Mail to the Property Owner / Public Entity with Affidavit of Service
After completing the Pennsylvania Subcontractor Mechanics Lien Form, you must deliver it to the appropriate parties required by statute. Notices are typically served on the property owner and, for sub-tier parties, the general contractor. However, depending on the type of notice, it can be helpful to send notices to anyone else who is in charge of your payment, like a lender or surety company on the project.
