Mechanic’s lien litigation plays a pivotal role in protecting the rights of contractors, suppliers, and laborers involved in construction projects.

From filing and enforcing liens to defending against wrongful claims, our experienced attorneys provide expert legal guidance tailored to your unique situation.
Understanding Mechanic’s Liens in NYC
A mechanic’s lien is a powerful legal tool that grants unpaid contractors or suppliers a claim against a property they worked on. In New York, strict guidelines govern how and when a lien can be filed, making legal representation essential to avoid costly mistakes. Whether you’re a subcontractor seeking payment or a property owner defending against a lien, Wilson & Chan’s skilled attorneys ensure your rights are protected throughout the process.
