Mechanic's Lien

Read a random definition: a confectione praesentium

A quick definition of Mechanic's Lien:

A mechanic's lien is a way for someone who works on a property, like a car mechanic or a construction worker, to make sure they get paid for their work. It means that they have a right to keep the property until they are paid. Other people who work on property can also use this kind of lien, like suppliers or designers.

A more thorough explanation:

A mechanic's lien is a type of security interest that can be obtained by someone who has provided labor or materials for a property. This lien allows the lien holder to keep possession of the property until they are paid for their services.

For example, if a car owner takes their car to a mechanic for repairs but fails to pay for the services, the mechanic may be able to keep the car until they receive payment. This is because the mechanic has a mechanic's lien on the car.

It's important to note that a mechanic's lien is not limited to just mechanics. Other professions, such as construction workers, suppliers, and designers, may also be able to obtain a lien on a property they have worked on.
