A notice of intent to file a lien is required at least 10 days before filing a lien. Arkansas
permits anyone who supplies services in the construction of real estate to file a lien including engineers. A party has 120 days from the date services were furnished and must file in the county within which the property is situated. The original contractor may file at any time but other parties must give the owner 10 days notice prior to filing a lien. The lien is valid for 15 months or until a suit is filed. Arkansas requires notice prior to starting work and does permit the use of a bond to release a lien. Arkansas Code Annotated 18-44.
