Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

Company came out and restored my home due to water damage caused by a busted pipe in an attached villa to mine. The owner of the villa contacted the company and agreed to pay for the service with the compnay prior to the restoration at my villa. Two months has gone by and I got e-mail threatening a lien on my property if I don't pay the company that performed the restoration services since they have yet to receive payment from the person who signed the contract. We specifically asked and the company confirmed prior to services being performed that we would not be responsible for payment. We did not sign any contract or agreement. Can the company put a lien on my property? I have no obligation to pay as I did not sign the contract and agree to pay. The other owner did. I would assume the liability rests solely on the person who signed the contract and agreed to pay for the services?

If they have not been paid, they will file the lien for their labor. You can move to vacate, since you did not agree to pay.
