who is maker of check and who is check payable to?

The sections you are referring to on a Florida lien waiver should provide all the information of the anticipated payment to be made. The "maker of the check" should list who is making the payment (i.e. signing the check). The "amount of check" is the dollar amount of the payment that is to be made in exchange for the lien waiver (i.e. the amount of payment due). Lastly, the "check payable to" should list who is receiving the payment (i.e. who is signing the lien waiver).

Levelset provides free, downloadable lien waiver templates for Florida. Here are the links to both types of conditional lien waivers for use in Florida, depending on whether the payment is a partial (progress) payment or final payment:
