About this record

Counsel for the build: defects, liens, delays, and contractor disputes. In Los Angeles County, that work runs through the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles. This directory presents construction records from official State Bar of California data in neutral order.

Home to roughly a quarter of all Californians, Los Angeles County operates the largest unified trial court in the nation, with dozens of courthouses from Lancaster to Long Beach. Venue for most construction matters arising in the county lies with the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, seated at Los Angeles.

Deadlines shape these cases before merits do · mechanics liens: record within 90 days of completion (60/30 days after a notice of completion) (Cal. Civ. Code § 8412). Suit to foreclose the lien must follow within 90 days of recording (Cal. Civ. Code § 8460). Defect claims run four years for patent defects (Cal. Code Civ. Proc. § 337.1) and ten for latent (§ 337.15).
