If the primary General Contractor defaults, how much time do subcontractors and material suppliers have to file liens?

Subcontractors and material suppliers have 90 days after the primary General Contractor defaults to file liens. This timeframe is established to provide these parties with adequate time to protect their interests when payments for services or materials remain unpaid due to the contractor's default. The 90-day period enables subcontractors and suppliers to ensure that their rights to payment are preserved and allows them to take legal action if necessary. Knowing this timeframe is crucial for all parties involved in construction projects, as it underscores the importance of timely action in lien filings to secure their payments for work performed or materials supplied.
