Pre-lien Notice / Notice to Owner - Wyoming
WYOMING PRELIMINARY NOTICE OF RIGHT TO LIEN
This is the preliminary notice required by Wyo. Stat. § 29-2-112. It is not the later notice of intention to file a lien required at least 20 days before filing under § 29-2-107.
1. Timing and Recipients
Claimant type: ☐ Contractor ☐ Subcontractor ☐ Materialman
| Claimant | Send deadline | Required recipient |
|---|---|---|

| Subcontractor or materialman | Within 30 days after first providing services or materials to the project | Record owner or the owner's agent; also provide a copy to the contractor for whom services or materials are provided |
Failure to send the § 29-2-112 notice within the applicable period bars that contractor, subcontractor, or materialman from asserting the construction lien.
First services/materials date: [__/__/____]
First owner-payment date, if contractor: [__/__/____]
Notice deadline: [__/__/____]
2. Statutory Notice
Note to Lien Claimant: This form, if filled out correctly and sent within the time periods specified in W.S. 29-2-112, constitutes prima facie evidence that you have provided the content of the notice required by W.S. 29-2-112(a)(i). If you have any questions regarding how to fill out this form or whether it has been filled out properly, you should consult an attorney.
NOTICE TO OWNER
The undersigned party is providing work or materials to the property described below. Failure of payment due and owing to a contractor, subcontractor or materialman for work performed or materials provided to the project located on the property can result in the filing of a lien against the property. To avoid this result, when paying for labor and materials you may ask the contractor, subcontractor or materialman for “lien waivers” from all persons supplying materials or services. Failure to secure lien waivers may result in your paying for labor and materials twice. A form of lien waiver is attached to this notice.
Name, address, and telephone number of contractor, subcontractor, or materialman, and contact person:

Legal description:

Signed: ____________________________________
Printed name/title: [________________________________]
Date: [__/__/____]
3. Required Lien-Waiver Attachment
Attach the current lien-waiver form prescribed by Wyo. Stat. § 29-10-101(b). Do not sign a waiver on the claimant's behalf merely to complete this notice. A waiver should be completed and signed only in connection with the payment and reserved amounts stated in that form.
☐ Current § 29-10-101(b) waiver form attached
4. Sending Record
For Title 29 notices, “send” includes a properly addressed writing transmitted with cost provided. If mailed, use first-class mail, certified mail with return receipt requested, or another mail service requiring a delivery receipt. A commercial carrier may be used if it requests and maintains a delivery receipt. An electronic record is included only if sender and recipient previously communicated electronically. The writing is deemed sent when deposited in the mail or delivered for transmission.
Certified mail with return receipt is a prudent proof method, but § 29-2-112 does not make it the only permitted method.
| Recipient | Address | Method | Date sent | Tracking/proof |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Record owner or agent | [________________] | [________________] | [__/__/____] | [________________] |
| Contractor, if claimant is a subcontractor/materialman | [________________] | [________________] | [__/__/____] | [________________] |
5. Final Check
☐ Correct claimant deadline calculated
☐ Notice sent to record owner or agent
☐ Copy sent to contractor if claimant is a subcontractor or materialman
☐ Statutory warning and all identifying fields completed
☐ Current statutory lien-waiver form attached
☐ Proof of sending retained
☐ Separate § 29-2-107 notice of intention calendared before any lien filing

Real estate documents transfer ownership, define who can use a property, and record agreements between buyers, sellers, landlords, and tenants. Deeds, purchase agreements, leases, and easements have to be drafted to meet state recording requirements, and mistakes show up at closing or years later in title disputes. Good real estate paperwork moves transactions forward quickly and avoids the kind of problems that only surface when it is time to sell or refinance.
