Florida has an extremely unique approach to lien waivers. The state statutes do provide statutory lien waiver forms, but they aren't necessarily required. The fact that the parties can agree to use an alternate form, opens up the possibility of additional rights and claims being waived.
A lien is valid for one year, unless a lienor files a lawsuit to enforce the lien prior to the expiration of the year. An owner has a right to file a Notice of Contest of Lien during the one-year period. Upon the filing of a Notice of Contest of Lien, a lienor must file a lawsuit to enforce the lien within 60 days.
A contractor's affidavit provides reassurance to the project owner that all contractors and vendors on the project have been paid for the work they provided.

The Final Payment Affidavit is a sworn statement that serves as a comprehensive outline, issued after completion of a project, to notify the property owner of how much money is still owed for materials and services provided.

If you want to remove a lien from your property, you need to do one of two things: 1) have the contractor record a release of the lien or 2) file an appeal to have the lien released.
