Construction Lien Release

"I need a Construction Lien Release for a completed residential development project in Kuala Lumpur, where we received final payment of RM 5.2 million on March 15, 2025, and need to release all claims and liens against the property owner."

Document background
A Construction Lien Release is a crucial document in Malaysia's construction industry that provides formal documentation of the release of liens and payment claims against a property. This document is typically used after a contractor or subcontractor receives payment for completed work and needs to provide assurance that they waive their rights to file or maintain a lien against the property. The document must comply with Malaysian construction law, particularly the Construction Industry Payment and Adjudication Act 2012 (CIPAA), and should clearly identify the parties, project details, payment received, and the scope of the release. It serves as protection for property owners against double payment claims and helps contractors document proper payment receipt and claim release.
