Lien Waiver from GC
Hi There,
I finished up a rehab and about to pay the final payment to general contractor. I want to make sure that I get the lien waiver with the corresponding sub contractors he used information in the lien waiver as contractor affidavit. But, the GC says that he will provide the lien waiver from his company including the language that all sub contractors are paid without mentioning the name of the sub contractors.
When I asked him to include the subcontractor information in the lien waiver, he says that he has been doing the same way from past 20 years and he would not do that. How can I enforce him to provide the sub contractor details as specified in the lien waiver form. He also asks me to send the check in mail and then he will send the lien waiver in mail after the amount is cleared in the bank. what is the regular practice to get lien waivers from the GC's? How can enforce him to provide the sub contractor details ? He is adamant about not changing his way like providing sub contractor information. Do I have to go through the route of mediation using attorney generals office?. Any ideas in proceeding in this situation is appreciated.
