Within how many days must a mechanics lien be filed after completion of work or delivery of materials?

30 days
60 days
90 days
120 days

The correct answer is: 90 days

A mechanics lien must be filed within 90 days of the completion of work or delivery of materials. This timeframe is crucial because it ensures that those who have provided labor or materials for a property can secure a legal claim against the property before potential changes in ownership or the property’s condition occur. The 90-day period allows the lien claimant to take formal legal action to protect their interests and asserts the right to be compensated for the work completed, as this lien will be attached to the property and can affect its title. Should the lien not be filed within this designated timeframe, the claimant may lose the legal right to claim payment through the lien, thus underscoring the importance of adhering to this time limit. This provision is set to ensure a balance between protecting the rights of those who contribute to a property and providing property owners with a clear time frame to address and contest any claims made against their property deed.
