Mechanic’s Liens In Nebraska Construction
A mechanic’s lien is a security interest in property title benefiting those who supply labor or materials. In Nebraska, contractors, subcontractors and suppliers can file liens against property when unpaid. These liens may prevent property sales or refinancing until resolved, making prompt legal guidance essential in these matters.
Construction Defect Claim Statute Of Limitations
Nebraska law establishes specific timeframes for construction claims. Construction defect claims generally must be filed within four years of defect discovery, not exceeding 10 years from project completion under the state’s statute of repose. Understanding these deadlines is critical for protecting your legal rights in construction disputes.
