Work as a Florida construction lawyer long enough and you’ll see the same lien questions come up over and over again. Do you need a written contract to have lien rights? How long do I have to record my lien? How do I account for weekends and holidays? What is “last work” under the lien law? What happens after I lien? And can I lien homestead property? Alex Barthet breaks it down.
