Using Change Orders in Missouri

Plans and circumstances change. This causes frustration for those in the construction industry, where even small variations can result in substantial differences in the cost of a job.

Because of this, contractors should confirm changes in the construction contract via a Change Order. Change orders are used to modify the preexisting agreement of the parties (such as the contractor's promise to perform certain work and the customer's promise to pay for such work). Usually, changes lead to increased costs, additional time to complete the job, and possibly a change of the underlying contractual terms.

These documents identify the parties, the location, the nature of the change, and relevant dates and fees. The completed change order should be kept on file to resolve any potential disputes in regard to extra work performed and additional costs.

This article is provided for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal advice or relied upon as a substitute for speaking with a legal professional. If you have any questions about using a change order, or any other issues related to liens in Missouri, please speak with a qualified attorney.

I appreciated the fact that the forms were by Texas County and I knew I had the right form. The form were fairly easy to complete. I had trouble completing the form because the property description was long and kept disappearing and I had to re-type. It would also have helped it I could have saved and not had to start over every time.

Quick turnaround and superior customer service from my reviewer. Above and beyond my expectations and took the time to look into the lengthy list of other counties I have to confirm you are able to e-record for me. I appreciate all the time and effort taken to help me.

This is my third time using Deeds.com and they don't disappoint. Their customer service is outstanding - absolutely excellent - via messages, I communicated with them immediately and 24/7 - on weekends and at night. I would not even try another service as they provide excellence which is so rare these days.

Extremely helpful team of professionals who are patient when you need to get things filed correctly.
Very small price for the comfort of knowing your DOCUMENTS are FILED with you local Recorder's Office.

Some of the filings, if they are correctly formatted are already uploaded and official within a few hours.

Here's the ALTERNATIVE you may encounter.

For Example:

King County Recorder's Office moved which means most filings are backed up 7-10 days if you DROP your filing in a BOX with your CHECK or MAIL IT. Neither is a great option, since they have no WALK IN HOURS.
