Florida questions and answers

• I have improperly filed mechanics liens placed on my property in Orlando, Florida. How do i resolve/remove legally?

  Asked in Orlando, FL | May 22, 2026

  A contractor submitted 2 separate Claim of Lien on my property beyond the legal time frame of 90 days after doing the work or providing materials. I was never properly notified legally within the 15 days via certified/return receipt mail. The liens are not properly filled out, either leaving necessary spaces blank, or with a N/A placed in them. They are notarized, but I do not know if they are legally notarized because of the blank spaces. Also, I believe a construction person who completes work that requires the proper licensing to complete work on a property is the only one that can place a lien for that type of work on the property if they feel they were not properly compensated, or had some dispute. This person does not have a license of any sort. When the work required proper licensing by law, he sub contracted the work to a proper party. Since he did not list anything for his disputed work or materials/supplies, I do not know what he is claiming, nor the dates of work. Any work that was furnished is well beyond 90 days. What is the most cost effective way to remove these improper liens to clear my title?

• How do I recover $150,000 that was stolen by an attorney escrow in Texas?

  Asked in Homestead, FL | January 28, 2026

  Am looking to recover $150,000 that was stolen by an attorney in Texas. I filed a Grievance & Ethics report with the Texas State Bar. The disciplinary panel saw and heard evidence, including fraudulent documets, and found enough evidence to find the attorney guilty of miscouduct. Prior to filing the grevance, I had sent a demand for payment via FedEx, giving the 30 days notice that he never complied with. I am looking to recover the my funds plus the amount that is by owed by law if clamaint doesn't respond.

• City construction caused a crack or leak in sewer system causing property issues. What do I do?

  Asked in Sarasota, FL | December 26, 2025

  I acquired a condo and there were no issues with the unit until the City of Venice commenced a capital improvement project on a sewer lift station (which should have only been 2 weeks) sitting adjacent to my condo unit. Work completed several weeks later. Replacement of a new gravity pipe caused a crack or leak on a shared vent branch in my unit. HOA and City of Venice are avoiding responsibility. Owner left with sewage gases and pressure issues unresolved.

• My brother passed before case was done.

  Asked in Fort Lauderdale, FL | August 21, 2026

  He passed and his son went on a zoom on 8/7/2026. But he knew nothing of the case until he received this notice about the case until it was too late to do anything. My brother fell in a manhole in front of the store and it cut off half his manhood. As a result he had to live in pampers. Can this case be adjudicated still?

Subsequent required care was received with ultimate follow-up to Chiropractor (MVA Medica Care for Rehab./Therapy Care). Reported MVA impact of pain & discomfort was identified in upper neck & shoulders including left side shoulder soft tissue pain/discomfort & spasms. However, the Chiropractor Doctor articulated that a neck adjustment was about to take place, however, immediately thereafter and unbeknownst - without warning applied excessive and extremely forceful (too forceful) blows - multiple forceful pressing down blows all the way down my spine (pressing down extremely hard, very strong and hurtful while pressing my spine) with subsequent shoulders and pelvic / hip bone thrusting forward type of force at the corners of both shoulders and pelvic, which have now created a highly unnatural and Previously Non-Existence curving of my spine, shoulders and pelvic/sacrum & tale bone area resulting in ongoing relentless muscle, movement & joint pain; extreme misalignment ramifications to address elsewhere.
