“Mechanics Lien Rights and the Interior Designer”
Learn About an Upcoming Change in Illinois Law that Affects Interior Designers
On January 1, 2018, the Illinois Mechanics Lien Act will be amended to allow interior designers to assert mechanics lien rights against projects to collect unpaid fees. Do you know what that means, and how this law can benefit your business? Construction lawyer Ryan Hiss will give us a primer on mechanics lien. He will identify what they are, how they should be used, and how they can be effective tools in getting paid for your hard work.
