The state of TEXAS enacted new lien law changes effective January 1, 2022 that simplifies the 1st notice process for subcontractors. Notices that no longer have legal relevance include:
-Specially Fabricated Materials notice
-Second Month notice
-Notice of Contractual Retainage
Now, subcontractors simply need to send one of two notices by the 15th day of the third month when there is a balance due:
-TEXAS Notice Of Claim For Unpaid Labor Or Materials
-TEXAS Notice Of Claim For Unpaid Retainage
PreLien2Lien online and the desktop Lien Service edition have both been updated to reflect the law changes.
