In Arkansas, the deadline to file a mechanics lien is 120 days after the claimants last substantial work on the job. So, if a lien must be filed, it must be filed in that timeframe. More on the Arkansas mechanics lien rules here: (1) Arkansas Mechanics Lien Guide and FAQs; and (2) How to File an Arkansas Mechanics Lien – Step by Step Walkthrough. Of course, there are some notice deadlines to consider as well. For commercial projects, a Notice to Owner and Contractor must be sent within 75 days of last furnishing. Additionally, regardless of project type, Arkansas is a state which requires a Notice of Intent to Lien be sent before a lien can be filed. And, the Notice of Intent must be given at least 10 days before the lien can be filed.
