Please contact a LIEN-PROfessional today to discuss your lien filing options in Quebec

Quebec Legal Hypothecs for construction must be filed within 30 days of the "end of work”. End of work does not have a definitive description in Quebec. It is typically viewed as the end of a contract, date last working date on a job site or date of last supply. Your lien rights begin as soon as you have added value to a project.

 

Construction Hypothecs are the number one type of hypothec - you become first priority.  Filing a construction hypothec lets everyone know you are serious. 

 

To file a lien you must have:

• Address, legal description or GPS coordinates of job location
• Your customer’s name and address
• Short description of work or materials provided
• Date last on site or date of last supply
• Total amount owing for project

 

You must file notice acknowledging your lien within six (6) months of your claim being filed. Once you have filed notice, your lien is valid for 30 years.
