the persons who furnished the labor or materials for the improvement. The owner may require a
written contract, to be recorded, and a bond with sufficient surety to be furnished and recorded
by the contractor in an amount sufficient to cover the cost of improvements, thereby relieving
the owner, and his or her property, of liability for any unpaid sums remaining due and owing

commencement of the period for preservation of claims and privileges, the owner will be liable
for all costs and attorney's fees for the establishment and enforcement of the claim or privilege.

Toolbars, and then select Forms. This will open the Forms toolbar. Look for the button on the
Forms toolbar that resembles a shaded letter “a”. Click this button and the form fields will be
visible.
By clicking on the appropriate form field, you will be able to enter the needed information. In
some instances, the form field and the line will disappear after information is entered. In other
