Our Mechanic Lien Filing Services are for processing a labor or repair lien on a customer’s motor vehicle for non-payment of labor, parts, and storage. If you have been storing a motor vehicle, vessel, mobile home or RV at your repair shop with an unpaid bill for 3 days or longer, then this mechanic lien filing service is for you.
Please note* To use our services you must use the invoice/estimate form approved by The Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services when you acquired your repair license. If the customer did not sign the bill to authorize the repair, then authorization dates of repair and when you contacted the customer can be used. DMV Invoice Requirements
Our services include the following requirements to successfully process a “Mechanic Lien” (also referred to as a Labor, Service, Storage Lien) Our experienced title clerks handle everything for you from A to Z:
- Title search for verification of ownership and lien-holder status information
- Mechanic Lien notices mailed certified to your customer, registered owner(s) and lien holders on file with the DMV.
- Notifications to Law Enforcement (if applicable for out of state or abandoned vehicles)
- Publishing of the required legal ads in your local Newspaper
- Recording your Mechanic Lien with County Clerk of Court
- Forms, support and communications with DMV for Transfer of Title
- Postage and/or delivery
- Communications with Customer and Lien Holders regarding balance owed.
What vehicles do you have that owe you money?
You’re legally entitled to file a mechanic lien and get compensated for the parts, labor and storage fees you have incurred during this process. Our title clerks can help you resolve those issues and process the mechanic lien paperwork for you.
One of two things will happen once you file a mechanic lien:
1. Your past-due bill will get paid.
2. Your company will own the vehicle.

These people are extremely knowledgeable with abandoned vehicles, Recreational Vehicles and even mobile homes. Within the past year they have helped us to recover thousands of dollars by getting us Lien free titles to abandoned items to include Boats and mobile homes. Once we had clear title we were able to sell the items and recoup most of our lost revenue. We will certainly use this Company many times in the future. If you have issues with liens or abandoned vehicles look no farther, you will not be disappointed. Christine was very knowledgeable and professional.
