Kevin's firm handled setting up my will and trust recently. They took something that seemed intimidating and made it easy to understand. I've also referred a couple clients to Kevin - he's trustworthy, approachable and very fairly priced.
"I've used Kevin and his firm's services since 2011. He gave undivided attention to my cases, advised me on different options and..."
"Kevin was extremely professional, responsive and knowledgeable when I came to him for help. I would definitely recommend O'Flaherty Law!"

A mechanics lien can be an important way to secure the money owed when construction is done but payment is not. Under Illinois law, qualifying contractors and others who provide labor, services, or materials for improvements to real property may have lien rights, but the process is governed by strict notice, filing, and enforcement requirements. O’Flaherty Law can help determine lien rights, prepare the proper paperwork and determine the best course of action to pursue unpaid amounts.
Mechanic’s lien disputes can be complicated because the deadlines and notice requirements may vary depending on your role in the project and the type of property involved. For example, Illinois law generally requires contractors seeking to preserve lien rights against third parties to record a claim or file an enforcement action within four months of completing their work, while subcontractors may be subject to separate notice requirements. Missing an important deadline can greatly affect a lien claim. Therefore, it is important to address payment issues immediately, rather than waiting for the dispute to resolve itself.
Mechanics’ lien problems are not limited to contractors trying to get paid. Property owners may find a lien which they believe to be inaccurate, excessive, already paid, or otherwise improper. Our Bloomington attorneys can assist you in filing and enforcing liens, or reviewing, negotiating, challenging or seeking the release of liens in dispute. Illinois law also provides for procedures for the release of satisfied liens and in some cases the substitution of a surety bond for the property securing a lien claim. O’Flaherty Law seeks to achieve the workable solution that safeguards your property, rights to payment and wider financial interests.
