Owner Address Not Deliverable

CaliforniaLegal Property DescriptionLien Deadlines

We are working on a current project, final demand letters were sent as we're having payment issues. The Owner rejected our final demand letter via USPS. Come to find out that our preliminary notice was also rejected. What are the laws here and how can we securely know that we're meeting requirements to get paid should we need to enforce a lien?

You have met your obligation to serve a 20-day prelim so long as you served it, per code. Keep the sealed/returned envelope that you served the 20-day prelim in as proof of your compliance. If payment is not forthcoming well in advance of your deadline to record a lien, then your next step is to record a lien.
