We have represented landlords, tenants, property managers and leasing brokers, and provide quality representation to ensure our clients’ rights are protected.

Mechanic’s Lien / Stop Notice

Our Bay Area real estate litigation team has extensive experience in representing contractors, subcontractors and equipment/material suppliers in mechanics’ liens disputes.
