Notice of Claim - A person claiming benefits under this chapter shall file for record with the
county recorder of the county in which the property, or some part of the property, is situated, a
written notice to hold and claim a lien within 90 days from the date: (a) the person last
performed labor or service or last furnished equipment or material on a project or improvement
for a residence as defined in Section 38-11-102; or (b) of final completion of an original contract
not involving a residence as defined in Section 38-11-102. Within 30 days after filing the notice
of lien, the lien claimant shall deliver or mail by certified mail a copy of the notice of lien to: (i)
the reputed owner of the real property; or (ii) the record owner of the real property. If the record
owner's current address is not readily available to the lien claimant, the copy of the claim may
be mailed to the last-known address of the record owner, using the names and addresses
appearing on the last completed real property assessment rolls of the county where the affected
property is located.
Notice of Contract Terms - As to all liens, except that of the contractor, the whole contract price
shall be payable in money, except as herein provided, and shall not be diminished by any prior
or subsequent indebtedness, offset or counterclaim in favor of the owner and against the
contractor, except when the owner has contracted to pay otherwise than in cash, in which case
the owner shall post in a conspicuous place on the premises a statement of the terms and
conditions of the contract before materials are furnished or labor is performed, which notice
must be kept posted, and when so posted shall give notice to all parties interested of the terms
and conditions of the contract. Any person willfully tearing down or defacing such notice is guilty
of a misdemeanor.
Demand for Cancellation of Lien - The claimant of any lien filed as provided herein, on the
payment of the amount thereof together with the costs incurred and the fees for cancellation,
shall at the request of any person interested in the property charged therewith cause said lien to
be canceled of record within ten days from the request, and upon failure to so cancel his lien
within the time aforesaid shall forfeit and pay to the person making the request the sum of $100
per day or actual damages, whichever is greater, until the same shall be canceled, to be
recovered in the same manner as other debts.
Cancellation of Lien - The claimant of any lien filed as provided herein, on the payment of the
amount thereof together with the costs incurred and the fees for cancellation, shall at the
request of any person interested in the property charged therewith cause said lien to be
canceled of record within ten days from the request, and upon failure to so cancel his lien within
the time aforesaid shall forfeit and pay to the person making the request the sum of $20 per day
until the same shall be canceled, to be recovered in the same manner as other debts.
Preliminary Notice - Except subcontractors who are in privity of contract with an original
contractor or except for persons performing labor for wages, any person claiming, reserving the
right to claim, or intending to claim a mechanic's lien under this chapter for labor, service,
equipment, or material shall provide preliminary notice to the original contractor. Any person
who fails to provide this preliminary notice has no right to claim a mechanic's lien.
Notice of Commencement - Any right to assert a defense of failure to comply with the
preliminary notice requirement is void unless the original contractor records a notice of
commencement of the project or improvement with the county recorder for the county or
counties where the project is located within 30 days after commencement of the project.
Assignment of Lien - This Assignment of Lien form is for use by a corporate lienor who
furnished or supplied labor, materials, or laborers for the purpose of improvements of real
property, such that the lienor is entitled to a lien for the value of labor, materials, or laborers
supplied to provide notice that the lienor assigns its claim and lien to an individual, who shall
have all the rights and remedies under law to which the lienor is entitled subject to all defenses
thereto that might be made if such assignment had not been made, for the purpose of filing and
for the enforcement of the lien.
Notice of Completion - This Notice of Completion form is for use for filing with the Utah State
Construction Registry Project and includes project, filer and payment information.
Subcontractor's Request for Notice of Preliminary Notice Received - This Subcontractor's
Request for Notice of Preliminary Notice Received form is for use by a corporate subcontractor
on a project or improvement for which a preliminary notice has been filed pursuant to Utah Code
Ann. §38-1-32, to state the date a preliminary notice was filed, and to request that the original
contractor provide notice to the subcontractor within fourteen (14) calendar days after the day of
the Request of each preliminary notice the original contractor has received for the project.
Notice of Release of Lien and Substitution of Alternate Security - This Notice of Release of Lien
and Substitution of Alternate Security form is for use by a corporate owner of an interest in real
property that is subject to a recorded mechanics' lien or original contractor or subcontractor
affected by the lien, to provide notice that it disputes the correctness or validity of the recorded
lien relating to property and that upon the recording of the notice, the real property shall be
released from the mechanics' lien to which the notice applies. The notice is effective as to any
amendment to the lien being released if the attached bond amount remains enough to satisfy
the requirements of Utah Code Ann. §38-1-28(2)(c)(ii). If a suit is pending to foreclose the lien at
the time the notice is served upon the lien claimant under Utah Code Ann. §38-1-28(4)(a), the
lien claimant shall, within 90 days from the receipt of the notice, institute proceedings to add the
alternate security as a party to the lien foreclosure suit.
Conditional Waiver and Release Upon Progress Payment - This Conditional Waiver and
Release Upon Progress Payment form is for use by a corporate lien claimant who is required to
execute a waiver and release in exchange for or to induce the payment of a progress billing to
provide information, including the property name, the property location and description, the
customer, the invoice payment application number, the payment amount, and the payment
period. This waiver is effective to release and the lien claimant is considered to waive any notice
of lien or right under Utah Code Ann., Title 38, Chapter 1, Mechanics' Liens, or any bond right
under Utah Code Ann., Title 14, Contractors' Bonds, or Section 63G-6-505 related to payment
rights the lien claimant has on the property once the lien claimant endorses a check in the
referenced payment amount payable to the lien claimant, and the check is paid by the
depository institution on which it is drawn.
Waiver and Release Upon Final Payment - This Waiver and Release Upon Final Payment form
is for use by a corporate lien claimant who is required to execute a waiver and release in
exchange for or to induce the payment of a final billing to provide information, including the
property name, the property location and description, the customer, the invoice/payment
application number, and the payment amount. This waiver becomes effective to release and the
lien claimant is considered to waive any notice of lien or right under Utah Code Ann., Title 38,
Chapter 1, Mechanics' Liens, or any bond right under Utah Code Ann., Title 14, Contractors'
Bonds, or Section 63G-6-505 related to payment rights the lien claimant has on the property
once the lien claimant endorses a check in the referenced payment amount payable to the lien
claimant, and the check is paid by the depository institution on which it is drawn.

III. TIPS ON COMPLETING THE FORMS
The form(s) in this packet may contain “form fields” created using Microsoft Word or Adobe
Acrobat (“.pdf” format). “Form fields” facilitate completion of the forms using your computer.
They do not limit your ability to print the form “in blank” and complete with a typewriter or by
hand.
It is also helpful to be able to see the location of the form fields. Go to the View menu, click on
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
cases, it will not. The form was created to function in this manner.
