Unconditional waiver and release on final payment
Releases all lien rights on the project the moment the claimant signs.
What this form does
The unconditional final waiver releases all of the claimant's lien rights for the entire project the moment they sign. There is no condition on payment. Use this only after the final payment has cleared the sub's account.
When to use it
Send this only after the final payment has been honored by the bank. Confirm the funds, then send the form, then file the signed PDF as the closeout document for that sub on that job.
If you're using unconditional final as a precondition for cutting the final check, stop. Most state statutes write a bold notice into the form precisely because that pattern hurts the sub.
Sample wording
Paraphrased for clarity. State-specific statutory text is filled in automatically when you pick the project's state.
The undersigned has been paid in full for all labor, services, equipment, or material furnished to [customer] on the job of [owner] located at [project] and does hereby waive and release any mechanic's lien, stop payment notice, or bond right that the undersigned has on the above-referenced job.
What the form holds back
- Disputed claims that pre-date the final waiver
- Items not arising from the contract or work performed
Questions
When is the unconditional final waiver appropriate?
Only after the final payment has cleared the claimant's account. The form releases all lien rights for the entire job the moment it's signed.
What's the bold notice for?
California §8138 and Texas §53.284(e) (among others) require a bold notice telling the claimant not to sign before being paid. The notice is part of the prescribed text. Removing it voids the waiver.
