I finally received a set of lien-releases from PB's subcontractors, but they seemed inadequate in many ways. The lien releases were on PB's letterhead signed by the subcontractor - how is a subcontractor allowed to use letterhead of the PB? In addition, there was no Name or Title of person signing the release and verbiage was inadequate. I searched this forum for some help and did not find anything specific and so I figured I'll post what I used in the hope that it may help someone else.
