Construction Law Update: Announcing a New Washington Lien Law Treatise

We are pleased to announce the first updated edition of Stoel Rives' Washington state lien law treatise. Prepared by the authors, construction law attorneys Karl Oles and Bart Reed, the updated treatise includes references to recent case authorities. The changes to the original edition will be in redline through April so that they can be easily identified.

"We have received generous reviews for the original treatise and we hope that lawyers dealing with Washington construction lien law will find the updated edition useful," said author Karl Oles, "and we welcome feedback."

"The treatise remains designed with today's professional in mind," added co-author Bart Reed. "In an electronic, user-friendly format, and readily accessible for smartphone users, it is also searchable and will continue to be updated without the confusion of replacement pages or pocket parts."

The updated treatise, The Construction Lien in Washington: A Legal Analysis for the Construction Industry, can be downloaded for free at www.stoel.com/construction_lien_law. Copies for personal use may also be printed.
