What can a property owner do about mechanics and materialmen’s lien in McLennan County?
If a claimant unlawfully files a mechanic’s lien on his property, then that property owner has the option of filing a summary motion to remove the invalid or unenforceable lien, which the courts are supposed to determine promptly according to Texas Property Code § 53.160. If the property owner is successful, then that person can seek to recover attorney fees from the claimant who filed the invalid or unenforceable lien.
