    Understanding Kansas Requirements

    Kansas has a conditional preliminary notice requirement under KSA § 60-1103a. The Warning Statement / Notice is only required under specific circumstances, such as when a Notice of Commencement has been filed on the project or when the work involves certain property types.

    Because the notice requirement in Kansas depends on project-specific conditions, subcontractors and suppliers must verify whether a Warning Statement / Notice is needed on each individual job. Missing a required notice when conditions are met can forfeit lien rights entirely.
