Arizona deadline risk

20-day preliminary notice deadline is strictly enforced

Deadline Type	Timing	Details
Preliminary notice	Within 20 days of first furnishing (or before starting work)	Notice rules can depend on role, project type, and contract chain. Send notices early when in doubt.
Mechanics lien filing	120 days after last furnishing labor or materials	Reference: ARS § 33-992.01.
Enforcement	6 months after filing lien	Filing a lien is not the final step. Track enforcement deadlines separately.

Run the deadline check when materials are furnished, not when collections already become urgent.

Preliminary notice rules can change by role and project type. Treat the notice path as a required workflow check.

Use the calculator for operational tracking, then verify high-value or disputed claims with counsel.
