FAQ

Does Florida require a specific lien waiver form?

Which Florida lien waiver form do I use?

It depends on the payment. Florida sets 2 forms: waiver and release of lien upon progress payment; waiver and release of lien upon final payment. Use a conditional form when you are asking to be paid and an unconditional form only after the money has cleared, where the state makes that split.

Can I change the wording of the Florida form?

Fill in the blanks, but keep the wording. The statute expects its form, and changes can make a waiver unenforceable or give up more than you meant to. Ask an attorney before signing a version that differs.

How long do I have to file a lien in Florida?

Not later than 90 days after your final furnishing of labor, services or materials. (Florida Statutes 713.08). Most states also have notice steps before the lien; read the statute.
