11 Broussard Construction Company of Acadiana, LLC (Broussard) appeals the *1248granting of summary judgments in favor of Gravity Drainage District 8 of Ward 1 (the District) and Larry Doiron, Inc. (Doiron) and the award of $59,988.00 in attorney fees to the District. For the following reasons, we affirm.
FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
On August 11, 2009, the District filed a Concursus Rule to Cancel Public Works Act Lien1 against Doiron, Broussard, and Western Surety Company.2 According to the District’s pleading, “[i]n July of 2008, ... Doiron entered into a [Cjontract with [t]he District to remove all hurricane [d]e-bris from Indian Bayou/Little Indian Bayou (the ‘Project’)” for a fee of $204,000.00. In August of 2008, Doiron “entered into a joint venture agreement with ... [Brous-sard] whereby Broussard would provide all labor[,] equipment^] and materials to complete the Project.” It was agreed that Doiron would keep ten percent of the $204,000.00 fee, pay all costs of obtaining the performance bond, and pay any additional insurance costs. On October 14, 2008, the District, Broussard, and Doiron executed Change Order Number One “to significantly reduce the scope of the Project and have [Doiron and Broussard] complete the reduced scope of work for the original lump sum bid of $204,000[.00].” A Certificate of Substantial Completion was filed by the District on January 26, 2009.
On March 27, 2009, Broussard filed a Lien Under the Public Works Act against the District alleging that “[d]uring the course of performance of the work contemplated by the Contract documents, representatives of the [District] ^instructed Doiron and Broussard to perform storm-related debris removal at locations other than those identified in the Contract as modified by [Change Order Number One].” According to Broussard’s lien, Doi-ron and, alternatively, the District owed him $1,153,000.00 for work allegedly performed in excess of the terms of the Contract and Change Order Number One.
The District’s Concursus Rule to Cancel Public Works Act Lien prayed for judgment ordering the cancellation of the lien filed against it by Broussard and sought damages and attorney fees from Doiron and Broussard pursuant to La.R.S. 38:2242.13 and La.R.S. 38:2246.4
*1249|sOn September 11, 2009, Broussard5 filed a Suit on Open Account and to Enforce Lien or Privilege6 against the District. According to its suit, Broussard sent an invoice for $1,153,000.00 with a notice of intent to file a lien against the District in March of 2009. Broussard’s suit prayed for “a judgment recognizing, maintaining, and enforcing the lien and privilege on the funds held by [the District] for [the] improvement of property in Calcasieu Parish[ ]” and sought $1,153,000.00 from the District which allegedly “representad] the amount owed for [the] work that Doiron and Broussard performed that was beyond the scope of the Contract and subsequent Change Order.”
On September 23, 2010, the District filed a motion for summary judgment, seeking a dismissal of all of Broussard’s claims “be-' cause the terms of its |4[C]ontract for [the] debris-removal project in Indian Bayou/Little Indian[ ] Bayou with [the District have] been fulfilled.” The same day, Doi-ron filed a motion for summary judgment against Broussard also seeking a dismissal of Broussard’s claims.
On September 24, 2010, Broussard filed its own motion for summary judgment. Broussard’s motion sought “identification of the Scope of Work of both the Original Contract between the District and Doiron, and the modifications to the Scope of Work made by Change Order [Number One] to the Contract....”
The trial court heard arguments on the parties’ three motions for summary judgment on October 14 and 21, 2010. Brous-sard argued that the Contract and subsequent Change Order Number One were ambiguous and sought the introduction of *1250parole evidence to determine the parties’ intent. The District and Doiron argued that the Contract and Change Order Number One were unambiguous and contended that the terms clearly reflected a lump sum contract. The trial court ultimately denied Broussard’s motion and granted the motions filed by the District and Doi-ron.
On November 30, 2010, the trial court heard arguments on the District’s claim against Broussard for attorney fees. The District argued, pursuant to La.R.S. 38:2242.1(B), that Broussard, without reasonable cause, failed to authorize the cancellation of its lien against the District; therefore, the District was entitled to attorney fees from Broussard. The trial court granted the District’s motion.
A judgment granting the motions for summary judgment filed by Doiron and the District, and granting the District’s motion for attorney fees in the amount of $59,988.00 was signed by the trial court on December 30, 2010. It is from this judgment that Broussard appeals.
| .ASSIGNMENT OF ERROR
Broussard asserts that the trial court “erred in granting the summary judgments [in favor of] Doiron and the District[ ] and in awarding attorney fees and costs to the District.”
LAW AND DISCUSSION
Motions for Summary Judgment
“Appellate courts review summary judgment de novo, using the same criteria that govern the trial court’s consideration of whether summary judgment is appropriate, and in the light most favorable to the non-movant.” Yokum v. 615 Bourbon Street, L.L.C., p. 25 (La.2/26/08), 977 So.2d 859, 876 (citing Suire v. Lafayette City-Parish Consol. Gov’t., 04-1459 (La.4/12/05), 907 So.2d 37). Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Article 966(A)(2) states “[t]he summary judgment procedure is designed to secure the just, speedy, and inexpensive determination of every action,” and this “procedure is favored and shall be construed to accomplish these ends.” “[I]f the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue of material fact,” then judgment shall be granted as a matter of law in favor of the mover. La.Code Civ.P. art. 966(B) and (C).
Kleinman v. Bennett, 11-947, pp. 3-4 (La.App. 3 Cir. 12/7/11), 80 So.3d 689, 691-92.
Broussard asserts that the amount of debris removed was five times more than what was contemplated in the District’s estimate. Broussard contends the trial court erred in granting the District’s and Doiron’s motions for summary judgment due to genuine issues of material fact relative to the Contract’s definition of the scope of work and relative to Change Order Number One’s modification of the scope of work.
The District argues “that Broussard and Doiron twice (once in the original contract and [once] in the change order) agreed to perform all the debris removal for $204,000.00.” The District claims, and Doiron concurs, that the Contract and Change Order Number One were unambiguous as to the amount of work the | .District expected Doiron and Broussard to perform for the contractual price of $204,000.00.
We find no merit to Broussard’s argument. The terms of the Contract clearly state that for $204,000.00, debris would be removed from a certain specified section of Indian Bayou and Little Indian Bayou. The terms of Change Order Number One even reduced the size of the section from which debris would be removed without reducing the amount to be paid. At no *1251time was there any alteration or change in the contractual amount to be paid. Brous-sard had ample opportunity at the time of Change Order Number One to redress any grievance about the type or amount of the work he was to perform in accordance with the Contract. Broussard failed to and/or refused to do so. The District did not agree at any time, by contract or otherwise, to pay more than the lump sum price of $204,000.00 for the work to be done. Consequently, Broussard is bound by the Contract.
Pursuant to our review of the record, using the required de novo standard of review, we find no error in the trial court’s grant of summary judgments in favor of the District and Doiron.
Attorney Fees
Broussard argues that the trial court erred in ordering it to pay attorney fees to the District in connection with the wrongful filing of its lien. Based on its interpretation of the Contract and Change Order Number One, Broussard contends that the lien was proper because the District owed it money. Having found no error in the trial court’s finding that the Contract and Change Order Number One were unambiguous, we reject this argument. The trial court correctly found that the District is entitled to attorney fees incurred in connection with pursuing the cancellation of the lien filed by Broussard.
