Sample Bond Claim Notice (subcontractor)
- Much like a Mechanic’s Lien, a bond claim notice must have the proper content, be mailed to the proper parties, and meet a deadline. And, you may be required to complete a Freedom of Information Act request to determine the surety, which will add days to the process.
- Remember, to review the Oklahoma Fair Pay for Construction Act (or its federal counterpart), which may afford you a speedy remedy.
- Once received, the surety will typically ask the claimant to complete a proof-of-claim form, similar to a bankruptcy proof-of-claim.
