What is the best time to talk to a client about liens and stop notices?

Before the job starts
10 days after the job starts
20 days after the job starts
30 days after the job starts

The correct answer is: Before the job starts

Discussing liens and stop notices with a client before the job starts is essential for several reasons. First, it sets clear expectations and helps the client understand the financial risks associated with construction projects. By addressing these topics upfront, both the contractor and the client can work collaboratively to ensure that payments and other responsibilities are managed properly throughout the project. Additionally, talking about these legal concepts early in the process allows for the establishment of a solid contract that includes payment terms, ensuring that all parties understand their rights and obligations. This proactive approach can mitigate potential conflicts or disputes that may arise later in the project due to misunderstandings about lien rights or processes. Engaging in this conversation after the job has commenced would not provide the client with the same level of clarity and may lead to complications or disputes that could have been avoided with prior discussion.
