CHAPTER 2. Preliminary Notice [8200 - 8216] (Chapter 2 added by Stats. 2010, Ch. 697, Sec. 20.)


8216. If the contract of any subcontractor on a particular work of improvement provides for payment to the subcontractor of more than four hundred dollars ($400), the failure of that subcontractor, licensed under the Contractors’ State License Law (Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 7000) of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code), to give the notice provided for in this chapter, constitutes grounds for disciplinary action under the Contractors’ State License Law.

Who Needs these Preliminary Notice Forms

The Preliminary Notice form is needed by Subcontractors, Direct Contractors, Suppliers, and Service Providers to protect their lien rights on construction projects.

If an entity that is required to do the preliminary notice doesn't, then lien rights may be lost as well as rights to stop payment notices, bonds, etc.

And if a California contractor doesn't do a preliminary notice, he/she is subject to discipline by the California State License Board (CSLB).

Remember! You are guaranteed a full refund if you don't love these forms.
