What information must a prime or general contractor's Lien Notice contain in Wisconsin?Under Wis. Stat. § 779.02, a prime contractor on a private small project who uses subcontractors must include the notice below in a written contract or proposal, if there is a written contract. If there is no written contract with the owner, the prime contractor must serve the owner of the property with the notice stated below within ten (10) days after first providing labor, materials or services. If printed, a prime contractor's lien notice must state in 8 point, bold font, the following: As required by the Wisconsin construction lien law, claimant hereby notifies owner that persons or companies performing, furnishing, or procuring labor, services, materials, plans, or specifications for the construction on owners land may have lien rights on owners land and buildings if not paid. Those entitled to lien rights, in addition to the undersigned claimant, are those who contract directly with the owner or those who give the owner notice within 60 days after they first perform, furnish, or procure labor, services, materials, plans or specifications for the construction. Accordingly, owner probably will receive notices from those who perform, furnish, or procure labor, services, materials, plans, or specifications for the construction, and should give a copy of each notice received to the mortgage lender, if any. Claimant agrees to cooperate with the owner and the owners lender, if any, to see that all potential lien claimants are duly paid. http://www.legis.state.wi.us/statutes/Stat0779.pdf Thank you to Chad Koplien for the above answer.
