ABA MEMBERS: $15-
NON MEMBERS: $25-

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Under Arizona law, providing a preliminary 20-day notice is a precondition to later recording a valid lien. If you do not send an accurate 20-day notice, you may not have lien rights. This webinar will focus on the most common mistakes that contractors, subcontractors and suppliers make in fulfilling the 20-day notice requirement and how you can avoid making those mistakes. This program will benefit anyone who prepares 20-day notices or is responsible for providing information to lien services to complete the 20-day notices on your company's behalf.
