Worker’s Lien

A worker's lien may be claimed by a person in accordance with the

Worker's Lien Act 1893 for unpaid wages or the contract price for work done or services provided or materials supplied to the land with the assent of the owner or occupier of the land. A notice of lien (LN) is registered in the GRO and, if the lienee is the registered proprietor of the land to which the lien relates, a notification of it is made on the certificate of title. Until withdrawn or otherwise removed, a lien has the effect of a caveat.

to engage the services of a solicitor or registered conveyancer, we always recommend engaging an industry professional to seek representation due to the complex legal nature of land transactions / dealings, subdivisions and boundary realignments.
