Legal Question in Construction Law in Florida
construction leins
do notice to owner requirements apply when the owner of the construction company you contract with is also a principal in the corporation owning the real estate being improved? We deal with him directly and he cannot claim he has no knowledge of us.

Re: construction leins
This gets complicated, but there is a theory that is known as the alternate identity doctrine and which would be a defense to the failure to serve a notice to owner. However, it will depend on more thorough review of your facts.
Good luck,
