Re: Failed to do change order!

File your mechanic's lien and demand payment. If they do not pay, then you will have to sue to foreclose the home (within 1 year of your lien). In the alternate you can sue for the amount to which you are entitled. You are entitled to the fair market value of the work you performed. You conveyed a benefit on the owners, and it is unjust for them to not pay you - they would be unfairly enriched.
