Filing A Claim On A Public Improvement Bond

Filing a claim or lien on a public improvement bond in the New York Metro Area, NJ, or CT

Contractors that do public improvement work (i.e. schools, hospitals, airports, roads, bridges, subways, railroads, etc.) are required to obtain a payment and performance bond issued by an insurance company (a surety) for the benefit of not only the various agencies that hire them but to ensure payment to their various subcontractors and/or suppliers. If you are owed money from a contractor on a public improvement, you may file a claim on that contractor’s bond. There is some information that is necessary to have such as the name of the entity of the public improvement (ex. the MTA, SDA Port Authority), and the name of the insurance company that issued the bond (ex. AIG, Travelers, etc.). If this information is not known to you, we will obtain it for you. We also obtain the correct form for the specific surety to ensure that your claim is filed properly.

A lien on a public improvement bond typically costs $300.00. If you need a public improvement bond claim we encourage you to contact us for a free consultation. Call eLienIt Today!
