Law summary
Assignment of Mechanic's Lien - Corporation
Note: This summary is not intended to be an all inclusive discussion of Rhode Island's construction or mechanic's lien laws, but does include basic provisions.
What is a construction or mechanic's lien?
Every State permits a person who supplies labor or materials for a construction project to claim a lien against the improved property. While some states differ in their definition of improvements and some states limit lien claims to buildings or structures, most permit the filing of a document with the local court that puts parties interested in the property on notice that the party asserting the lien has a claim. States differ widely in the method and time within which a party may act on their lien. Also varying widely are the requirements of written notices between property owners, contractors, subcontractors and laborers, and in some cases lending institutions. As a general rule, these statutes serve to prevent unpleasant surprises by compelling parties who wish to assert their legal rights to put all parties who might be interested in the property on notice of a claim or the possibility of a claim. This by no means constitutes a complete discussion of construction lien law and should not be interpreted as such. Parties seeking to know more about construction laws in their State should always consult their State statutes directly.
Who can file a lien in this State?
The law of Rhode Island permits contractors, subcontractors, and any party who provides labor and/or materials to claim a lien as follows. "Whenever any building, canal, turnpike, railroad, or other improvement shall be constructed, erected, altered, or repaired by oral or written contract with or at the oral or written request of the owner, the owner being at the time the owner of the land on which the improvement is located, or by the husband of such owner with the consent of his wife, the building, canal, turnpike, railroad, or other improvement, together with the land, is hereby made liable and shall stand subject to liens for all the work done by any person in the construction, erection, alteration, or reparation of such building, canal, turnpike, railroad, or other improvement, and for the materials used in the construction, erection, alteration, or reparation thereof, which have been furnished by any person."
How long does a party have to file a lien?
A lien claimant must provide the property owner with a Notice of Intent to Claim Lien within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the furnishing of labor and/or materials. The Notice of Intent also advises the property owner that all that is necessary for the lien claimant to officially claim a lien is to file the Notice in the records of land evidence in the city or town where the property is located.
By what method is a lien filed in this State?
