Who Can File a Lien in Mississippi?
Any individual or company that provides labor, materials, design services, or leased equipment for property improvements—including contractors, subcontractors, materials suppliers, architects, engineers, and surveyors—has the right to file a lien on the property. This right applies when there is a direct contractual relationship with the property owner.

In Mississippi, you have one (1) year after payment becomes due to file your lien. However, within that same year, you must also file a lawsuit to perfect your lien. Failure to do so will result in the loss of your lien rights.
