COLORADO MECHANICS' LIENS

Mechanics’ liens in Colorado are based on the theory that the increased value of the property resulting from the labor and/or material that is put into the property with the consent of the owner should be compensated. Sometimes, however, unscrupulous contractors abuse the process against unsuspecting homeowners. 

Though Colorado courts have taken a liberal approach in recognizing mechanics' liens, courts require strict compliance with statutory requirements, including specific, and often short, time frames and particularized notice requirements. 

Whether you are a homeowner or a contractor, it is therefore integral that you seek the advice of experienced counsel when faced with a mechanics' lien issue. Fortunately, Scardina Law is here to help you reach your goals and resolve the dispute in your favor.
