hey guys... so I did work for a guy about a year ago.. his 1990 Oldsmobile needed lots of work and he payed me for part of it, but not all of it... I made him sign a repair order before I got started and that repair order included a price that he agreed to...
my mistake was that I released the car back to him before he paid me in full.
so I am concidering filing a mechanic's lien against his car to prevent him from selling it with-out paying me (he still has the car). unfotunately I am having a hard time because all I am finding on-line is stuff about filing a machanic's lien for home and business subcontractors for construction projects... is it the same forms? what are the statute of limitations here in Illinois?
