Legal Question in Construction Law in California

Lien for owner's non payment of work done

We have been told that a mechanic's lien, which has been filed, is only good for 90 days. What can a contractor do to further secure the thousands of dollars he is still owed by an LLC group who has not sold the home, nor payed for septic and foundation, as well as the garage
