Payment rights
Protect your place in line for payment.
Construction payment disputes often turn on deadlines, notices, project details, and proof. If the right information is not organized when you need it, you can lose leverage — or lose payment rights entirely.
StreamLien helps you create a clean project record and prepare available construction payment documents through guided, state-specific workflows.
Get organized before payment problems escalate.
Keep project facts, parties, invoices, and dates in one place.
Protect payment rights where workflows are available.
Use state-specific document workflows instead of guessing from generic forms.
Review before you certify.
Check the information before checkout, certification, and download.
Keep a record for the next step.
Save the project history for releases, follow-up documents, or future review.

Is StreamLien only for California?
No. StreamLien is built for construction payment documents that depend on state-specific rules. California and Nevada workflows are available now, and additional jurisdictions will be added as they are ready.
Is this a law firm or a filing service?
StreamLien is a document-preparation platform for construction payment paperwork. Attorney review, filing, mailing, and managed service options are separate future offerings and are not included unless expressly selected and approved.
What do I receive today?
For an available workflow, you receive a final PDF document download after checkout and customer certification.
