Yes, I Can Help You Notarize a:

Mechanic's Lien

A mechanic’s lien is a legal claim filed by a contractor or subcontractor against a property for unpaid services or materials provided during construction. This lien ensures that the contractor has a legal right to seek payment. It is commonly used to protect workers in the construction industry.

Why Use a Notary?

Notarizing a mechanic’s lien helps verify the identity of the claimant and ensures the lien is filed voluntarily and accurately. It provides legal proof of the lien, making it enforceable in court if necessary. Notarization reduces the risk of fraudulent liens or claims for work that was not performed. It also ensures that the lien is properly recorded with local authorities.

Notaries are not attorneys and therefore cannot draft legal documents. However, to better serve my clients, I recommend using LawDepot for affordable access to commonly used legal forms. This can help you save on the cost of hiring an attorney for document preparation.

Mechanic’s Lien

A Mechanic’s Lien is a legal claim filed by a contractor, subcontractor, supplier, or laborer who has provided labor or materials to improve a property but has not been paid. It secures the right to seek payment by placing a lien on the property, which can ultimately lead to foreclosure if the debt remains unpaid.

In California, filing a valid Mechanic’s Lien typically requires:

  • Sending a Preliminary Notice within 20 days of starting work (if applicable)

  • Filing a Claim of Lien with the County Recorder’s Office

  • Serving a copy of the lien on the property owner

  • Filing a lawsuit to enforce the lien within 90 days (if not resolved)

The lien document usually includes:

  • Description of the labor or materials provided

  • Property address and legal description

  • Amount owed

  • Dates of work or delivery

  • Signer’s sworn statement under penalty of perjury

In California, a Mechanic’s Lien must be notarized before it can be recorded. Notarization verifies the identity of the claimant and the authenticity of the signature.

A mobile notary can assist by notarizing the lien form quickly and accurately, helping ensure compliance with legal deadlines and recording requirements.
