Relatively easy lien laws as long as you file preliminary notices. As for the deposit you can also ask for more money the minute you drop material on the job.

I just got a newsletter from my buddy it basically is an agency that goes after unlicensed contractors in Illinois. If we come across any advertising without the proper license number displayed they want us to give it to them. They will contact the business and tell them to either properly display their license per the Illinois licensing laws, or they will turn them into the state and have criminal charges brought up against them.

That makes good sense. 10% to secure.....another whatever when materials are delivered. I wouldn't have a problem with that but I'd make a clause that once the materials are dropped and if no payment was made there would be a hefty restocking fee.
