Fence Contractor Sues Boca West Country Club Over Alleged Unpaid Construction Work

BOCA RATON, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2025) — A Miami-based fencing contractor has filed a civil complaint in Palm Beach County, alleging it is owed more than $77,000 for work completed at Boca West Country Club’s recreational property.

The lawsuit, filed November 18, 2025, in the Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County, is titled Gomez & Son Fence Corp. v. Boca West Country Club, Inc., Case No. 50-2025-CA-012037-XXXX-MB.

According to the complaint, Gomez & Son Fence Corp. (“Gomez”) alleges it served as a subcontractor on improvements made at 20371 Country Club Road Blvd. in Boca Raton, part of the Boca West Recreational Pod Site 2 PUD. The filing states that Boca West Country Club, Inc. (“Boca West”) owns the property.

The lawsuit claims Boca West previously entered into a prime contract with T&G Corporation d/b/a T&G Constructors (“T&G”), and T&G later hired Gomez to supply chain-link fencing, labor, and related materials for the project. The subcontract agreement, attached to the filing, outlines responsibilities between Gomez and T&G.

Gomez alleges in the complaint that it started work on October 17, 2023, and completed its final work on November 14, 2024. The company states it served a Notice to Owner on November 21, 2023, and later recorded a Claim of Lien on January 22, 2025, under Clerk’s File Number 20250023541. The lien identifies the unpaid balance at $77,227.09, which the plaintiff claims remains overdue despite fulfilling all contractual obligations.

The lawsuit’s first count seeks to foreclose the construction lien under Chapters 713 and 85, Florida Statutes. Gomez asserts that all materials and labor provided were incorporated into the property’s improvements and that Boca West benefitted from the completed work. The filing requests that the court issue a final judgment declaring the lien valid, order a judicial sale if the amount owed is not paid, and award attorneys’ fees, costs, and interest.

A second count for unjust enrichment is included as an alternative claim. Gomez alleges Boca West knowingly accepted and retained the benefit of the installed fence materials and labor. The complaint states the “reasonable remaining value” of the provided goods and services is $97,527.00, based on an attached statement of account.

The plaintiff is represented by The Barthet Firm, located at 200 South Biscayne Boulevard in Miami. Attorneys listed include Alexander E. Barthet and Daniela Vega.

The complaint includes multiple exhibits: the subcontract agreement, notices, corporate documents, insurance certificates, and the recorded Claim of Lien. A warning section of the lien, included on page 32 of the filing, notes that a construction lien may remain valid for one year from recording unless the property owner takes action to shorten the period or legal proceedings begin to foreclose or discharge it.

Boca West Country Club, Inc. had not filed a response in the court record at the time the complaint was submitted. All allegations outlined in the lawsuit reflect the plaintiff’s claims and have not been ruled upon by the court.
