In the state of Michigan, the sworn statement form serves as a crucial document in the construction industry, ensuring transparency and accountability between contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and laborers engaged in property improvements. This document, legally mandated, provides a detailed account of all parties involved in a construction project, delineating their roles, the nature of the work done or materials supplied, and the financial transactions including payments made and amounts still owed. It's designed to safeguard the interests of property owners and lessees by offering a layer of protection against undisclosed construction liens, highlighting any potential financial liabilities that may impact their property. The form requires the contractor or subcontractor to attest under oath to the accuracy of the information provided, including confirmation that no other parties have been engaged beyond those listed, ensuring that the property is free from undisclosed claims. The sworn statement carries significant legal weight, warning both the property owner and the declarant of the consequences of reliance on false statements or omissions, highlighting the potential for criminal penalties in cases of fraudulent declarations. This document, embedded within Michigan's construction lien law framework, underscores the importance of transparency, accountability, and legal compliance in construction and renovation projects, safeguarding the interests of all stakeholders involved.
