OklahomaPayment DisputesRight to Lien

I'm a family member I paid 250 a month for a small room and 300 towards groceries and the only reason I'm asking this is because I wasn't there a couple of nights I slept over my girl friends basically i did some things around the house to help and was taken advantage of. Because the first night I wasn't there when I returned home I was told if they had to pay someone to fix something then I needed to move I was told what to pay in rent and food not to become there personal handy man but we made an agreement on some big jobs they needed done but when I was done they didnt honor there agreement I got nothing but they still got there rent and food money can I file a lien for the work I did??

Mechanics lien rights are generally only available to those who have provided a permanent improvement to the project property. So, regular maintenance generally won't give rise to lien rights - but more permanent repairs might. Levelset discusses that here: Mechanics Lien Rights for Repair and Maintenance Work. Further, lien rights generally exist for the price of the work performed. When payment isn't expected via cash, but rather by bartering - that'd definitely be atypical for mechanics lien claims. But, if you're able to put a monetary value on the amounts you're owed, then that might serve as a potential lien claim amount. Finally, keep in mind that Oklahoma does have a strict mechanics lien deadline. Generally, a lien claim must be filed within 4 months of the last date when labor or materials were furnished to the project. If that timeframe comes and goes before a lien gets filed, any subsequent lien claim will generally be invalid and unenforceable.

As a last note - keep in mind that merely threatening to file a mechanics lien claim could lead to payment, all by itself.
