Subcontractor Affidavit and Release of Claims and Lien Waiver is a document that is used by a subcontractor to provide a guarantee that the subcontractor has been paid in full for all labor and materials provided for a project. It also acts as a release of any claims that the subcontractor might have against the contractor or owner of the project. This document is also used to waive any liens that the subcontractor may have placed on the property. The most common types of Subcontractor Affidavit and Release of Claims and Lien Waiver are the Final Release and the Partial Release. The Final Release is used once the subcontractor has been paid in full and all labor and materials have been provided for the project. The Partial Release is used when the subcontractor has been partially paid and there are still outstanding bills for labor and materials. The Subcontractor Affidavit and Release of Claims and Lien Waiver is an important document for both contractors and subcontractors as it ensures that all parties involved in the project are paid in full and any potential legal disputes are avoided.
