The Notice of Intent to Record a Claim of Lien is a crucial document in Australia's construction and property development industry, serving as a formal notification mechanism within the security of payment framework. This document is typically used when a contractor, subcontractor, or supplier has not received payment for work performed or materials supplied to a property and intends to secure their right to payment through a lien claim. The notice must comply with specific requirements under various state legislation, such as the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Acts. It serves as both a legal prerequisite for filing a formal lien and a tool for encouraging payment resolution before escalating to more formal legal proceedings. The document includes essential information about the parties involved, property details, work performed, and amount claimed, and must be served within prescribed timeframes to preserve lien rights.
