Hello All,
Somewhere in the many boards that I read I found a contract between a General Contractor and subcontractor.
The subcontractor was signing a contract saying that they or anyone that worked for them would not sue/file judgement against the property or general contractor that they were working on under the General Contractor…anyone have a contract like that?
Thanks,
Dee-Texas
Usually you would get the sub to sign a form like that when he/she has been paid. To sign before hand that they will not file a lien would be cutting their own throat. I am posting a copy of one that I use that i got from some re book. It is just basic stuff. Hope it helps

I had waiver of lien in BOLD and centered. These do not need to be recorded. Please call or post if I can help again. If you get a mechanics lien recorded against you then you would need a release of lien recorded. I have a form for that too if you need it.
Thank you,

Dee,
I’d suggest contacting Hal as I’m sure his contractor contract is pretty stout these days. Also, Ron Guy probably has a good one.
hope it helps…
