Ground Leases and Lien Rights

Arizona

How do ground leases effect lien rights on a project in AZ? Is there a particular type of preliminary notice that needs to be sent for protection?. When a contractor is working with an oil company in AZ, would the same typical process suffice to protect lien rights?

To be safe, I would provide a preliminary lien notice to every interested party including the ground lessor and lessee. I don't think you need to do anything different to perfect your lien rights just because you are working with an oil company versus any other business. You need to follow the lien statutes in Arizona to perfect the lien.
