How may a lien claimant notify the property owner of an intent to file a lien?

By email only
By personal delivery or certified mail
By telephone only
By text message only

The correct answer is: By personal delivery or certified mail

A lien claimant must notify the property owner of their intent to file a lien through personal delivery or certified mail to ensure legal reliability and provide a formal record of the notification. This method adheres to the established legal requirements and allows for proof that the property owner received the notification. Personal delivery ensures immediate acknowledgment, while certified mail offers a paper trail, confirming delivery and receipt. Using only methods like email, telephone, or text message is insufficient because these forms of communication may not provide adequate proof of receipt or official notice as required by the law governing liens. It is crucial for the lien claimant to utilize methods that fulfill legal standards to avoid potential disputes regarding notification.
