Getting paid for completed work (and materials provided) is critical to the success of any construction business.

- Colorado mechanic’s lien law and the steps contractors (and materials suppliers) should understand to protect their interests
- Payment bond claims, including when and how to take action
- Verified Statements of Claim and their role in the collection process
- Release of retainage bonds, including recent legislative updates and new requirements
