Releasing a Mechanic's Lien in Tennessee
Lien claimants must grant releases when the lien is no longer effective because it has been paid off or for any other reason.
If a lienor whose lien has been forfeited, expired, satisfied or adjudged against the lienor in an action on the lien, fails to cause the lien provided by this chapter to be released within thirty (30) days after service of written notice demanding release, the lienor shall be liable to the owner for all damages arising therefrom, and costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the owner. Tenn. Prop. Code 66-11-135(a).
A valid release form under this section identifies the parties, the location of the work or improvement, a reference to the recorded notice of lien, relevant dates and payments, and any other information necessary for the specific situation.
The lienor must file the release in the office where the notice of lien was recorded. Tenn. Prop. Code 66-11-135(b). The fee for recording shall be the fee required for the recording of a release or satisfaction of a mortgage as provided by law. Id.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.
Thanks for the kind words James, glad we could help. Look forward to seeing you again.

Wasn’t what I expected
Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.
