Where Williamson County liens are recorded
Williamson County Clerk, Administration Building, 1848 Texas Trail, Georgetown, TX 78626. County Clerk recording page.
The clerk's land recording office moved to 1848 Texas Trail in Georgetown in June 2026, so older guides list the wrong address. We handle recording for you.
After recording, we confirm the lien is on record and send you the recorded copy with its recording number.
Finding the legal owner and legal description
A lien has to name the owner and describe the property correctly. In Williamson County we pull that from the Williamson Central Appraisal District (WCAD) records, then check it against the deed records. The street address on your invoice is often not enough: the record owner may be an LLC, a trust or a builder, not the person who hired you.
Round Rock, Cedar Park and Leander are mostly in Williamson County but reach into Travis, while Pflugerville and Austin are mostly in Travis. We confirm the county from the WCAD record before filing.

How filing works in Williamson County
- Send us the job. Address, who hired you, invoices, and the months you worked.
- We confirm the property. Owner and legal description from WCAD, plus the county where the property actually sits.
- We check your deadlines and notices. We confirm you're inside the Texas deadline and that any required notice of claim went out, or still can.
- We draft the lien affidavit. You review it. On a homestead, we check for the signed, filed contract and add the required warning language.
- We sign, notarize and record. The affidavit is recorded with the Williamson County Clerk.
- We serve it. A copy goes to the owner, and to the original contractor if you're a sub or supplier, within the 5-day window (ยง 53.055).
- You get the recorded copy. When you're paid, we file the release.
Lien deadline passed or the lien didn't pay?
The debt is still owed. We collect unpaid construction invoices on contingency, 10% to 33%, with no charge if we don't collect. See construction collections →
