Any developer, owner, contractor, subcontractor, material supplier, or design professional should be aware of the changes that have been made to California Mechanic’s Lien Law which have taken effect as of January 1, 2011. Failure to properly implement these changes will have drastic consequences as it will render a Mechanic’s Lien unenforceable as a matter of law.
Lang, Richert & Patch is proud to recognize its 2010 Super Lawyers and Rising Stars. Every year, the San Francisco publication, Law and Politics puts together a listing of outstanding lawyers in more than seventy practice areas. These attorneys are recognized for their uncompromising work and professional achievement. Only upon being nominated by their peers and evaluated by an independent source in a multi-phase process, do attorneys qualify for Super Lawyer honors. Top up-and-coming attorneys in the state who are 40 years old or younger, or who have been practicing for 10 years or less, and who are peer nominated and reviewed may qualify for Rising Star honors. Only 5 percent of lawyers in each state make the published list of Super Lawyers while no more than 2.5 percent are named as Rising Stars.

SACRAMENTO – California Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Allan Zaremberg released the following statement on today’s California Supreme Court ruling permitting private contracting for public works projects:“This ruling is great news for California commuters and taxpayers. The California Supreme Court has upheld the will of the people, who passed Proposition 35 in 2000 to promote the efficient delivery of public works projects and approved infrastructure bonds in 2006 to increase and accelerate those projects. Among other things, Californians need increased transportation capacity and they want it as quickly and efficiently as possible; today’s ruling will help deliver these results by allowing the use of private sector services to augment public sector capabilities.
