| Payment Disputes
|
The most common complaint of subcontractors and suppliers involves contractors and owners who fail to pay on time.
Utah and federal statutes require owners and contractors to make payment to subcontractors promptly. The Utah Prompt Payment
Act is found in Utah Code Ann. § 15-6-1 et seq.
The contractor licensing statutes similarly require contractors to pay subcontractors and suppliers within 30 days of receipt of
payment. See Utah Code Ann § 58-55-603.
The federal prompt payment act applies to work on federally funded projects. The prompt payment statutes can be a good tool for subcontractors
and suppliers. For any questions about the prompt payment statutes and related payment requirements,
