How do you file a claim or lien against a company who did not pay the account payables?

You can't just file a valid lien against a company. You have to have a statutory right to a lien on specific property. Therefore, unless you made improvements to their real estate, or did work on their vehicle, or are their attorney, or provided medical services, the only way you can claim a valid lien is to first sue the company and obtain a judgment. Then the judgment can be a lien against the company's real estate and you can also execute against its assets.


Defense against a mechanic's lien?

If the lien is wrongful, write a certified letter to the lien claimant demanding that the lien be released. If the letter is not answered, or if the lien claimant refuses to remove the lien, you should see a real estate attorney. If the lien is legitimate, contact the lien claimant to work out a payment plan.
