We’re like an insurance policy for your bottom line

BMDA serves as an insurance policy for payment on your jobs. We provide responsive service and protection for your lien rights so if a client goes bottoms up, you stay on top. You’re covered from the moment you file your Right to Lien Notice with us. (We recommend filing the very first day you deliver materials to your client.)

How Does It Work?

In most states, construction lien laws allow individuals or companies performing labor, furnishing material, or renting equipment in the preparation of the land or the construction of an improvement, to perfect a lien against the property if their bill is not paid. But to collect on this, you have to send a Notice of Right to a Lien first. And then follow the proper procedures to collect. We work with you to make sure all these things are managed well, so that if you need to request a lien document, everything is ready for you.

Membership Benefits

Our month-to-month membership option gives you unlimited notice filings, as well as access to our digital portal so you can submit notices online while you’re still at your job site. (You can still call or fax in your notice requests if you prefer.) We also work with non-members for a slightly higher per-notice rate. And anytime you have a question or need to file a claim, we’re here as your lien service, protecting your rights each step of the way.
