Can I cancell a caintactr and be payed past due payments for breach of payment terms by 90 day?

CaliforniaBack ChargesConstruction ContractRetainage

I'm a subcontractor on a multi-family project. I invoiced on 12/7 and have yet to be paid. The contract states payment net 60. I want to cancel the contract and be paid past due invoices and the work completed and equipment supplied. They are holding 25k in retainage. I want to be paid at the time of cancelation. Thank you,

Zachary - Depending on some more background facts that were not included in your post, it is probably too late for you to record a mechanic' lien. You still could file a lawsuit vs. the general contractor or owner (whichever you had your contract with). Kevin Meade, Esq. - 949-502-7715 - kmeade@TALGlaw.com

Do you want to write a demand letter for me? How much do you charge? Would you be interested in taking this all the way if need be?
