Q. I missed the time frame to file a mechanics lien in NH. Can I still file a lien against the property in a NH lawsuit?
A. Sometimes yes. The Plaintiff has the burden in some exceptions to establish probable cause to the satisfaction of the Court of his basic right to recovery and the amount thereof an in addition thereto the existence of some of the following examples. 1. There is substantial danger the property sought to be attached will be damaged, destroyed, concealed or removed from the State of NH and beyond jurisdiction. 2. In some circumstances imminent danger of transfer to a bona fide third party.
There are other exceptions that may permit the Plaintiff to file an attachment against real property.
