How to Do a Mechanic's Lien in Indiana?

Any person who performed labor, furnished materials, or did repairs on a vehicle, as well as those who provided storage services and did not receive satisfaction of the reasonable charges for the performed services within 30 days after the vehicle was left in the custody of that person, can file a mechanic's lien against this vehicle. According to state laws, filing a mechanic's lien in Indiana, the seller must adhere to the following rules:

  1. Vehicle must be advertised for sale at a public auction;
  2. Owner of the vehicle must be notified about the mechanic's lien holder's intention to sell the car;
  3. Mechanic's lien holder cannot sell the vehicle earlier than 15 days after the advertisement appeared in a newspaper or after the owner was notified about the sale, whichever comes later.

The seller must enclose the certificate or affidavit of the publication and proof of delivery of the notification sent via certified mail to the owner of the vehicle, as well as a copy of this notification to the Mechanic's Lien Bill of Sale.
