Phocus L.
G'day, my name is Michele! I work with startups, entrepreneurs and small/medium-sized businesses across the country in a wide array of industries. I help them with all of their ongoing, daily legal needs. This includes entity formation, M&A, contract drafting and review, employment, asset sale & acquisition, and business sales or shareholder exits. I'm half-Australian, half-Italian, and I've lived the last 20+ years of my life in America. I've lived all over the USA, completing high school in the deep south, graduating cum laude from Washington University in St. Louis, and then cum laude from Georgetown University Law Center. After law school I worked for the Los Angeles office of Latham & Watkins, LLP. After four intense and rewarding years there, I left to become General Counsel and VP of an incredible, industry-changing start-up called Urban Mining Company (UMC) that manufactures rare earth permanent magnets. I now work for Phocus Law where I help run our practice focused on entrepreneurs, startups, and SMEs. I love what I do, and I'd love to be of help! My focus is on providing stress-free, enjoyable, and high-quality legal service to all of my clients. Being a good lawyer isn't enough: the client experience should also be great. But work isn't everything, and I love my free time. I've been an avid traveler since my parents put me on a plane to Italy at 9-months old. I'm also a music nut, and am still looking for that perfect client that will engage me to explain why Dark Side Of The Moon is the greatest album of all time. Having grown up in a remote, and gorgeous corner of Australia, I feel a strong connection to nature, and love being in the elements.

Venue Rental Agreement
New York
Can the venue owner change the terms of a rental agreement after it has been signed?
I recently signed a venue rental agreement to host an event at a popular event space in town. The agreement clearly stated the rental fee, duration, and other terms. However, a few days later, the venue owner contacted me and informed me that they had made changes to the agreement and that I would now be responsible for additional fees and restrictions. I'm wondering if the venue owner has the right to change the terms of the rental agreement after it has been signed, and if not, what actions can I take to ensure that the original terms are honored?
Damien B.
Generally, neither party can unilaterally change or modify the terms of an agreement once both parties sign it. The only way is if a contract provision states that one party can modify the terms of the agreement without the consent of the other party. You would want to review the agreement to verify exactly what it says. If there is no provision that a party can unilaterally change the agreement or certain terms of the agreement, then there could be a possible claim for breach of contract if one of the parties refuses to honor it as it is written. An option is to file a lawsuit now to have a judge declare that the other party must abide by the terms of the agreement as is.

I sold my FedEx business in Oct 2020. The new owner paid half of my asking price & I have a legal contract for payment over 5 years with interest of 5%. He lost the business & has stopped paying my monthly installment payments.

Employee Benefits Agreement
New York
Do you take cases for unemployment overpayment benefits?
In 2020 during covid my business was forced to shut down. I was also working, I had a job and I owned an event planning business. before filing for UI I called in to ensure I was able to file for the PUA for my business. I was told by the representative yes I can. in her words she said "anyone can apply for the PUA" she did not explained to me that I cannot apply if I had another job, or what the conditions were, as I have never filed for or been on unemployment in my life until covid happened. In september 2022 I received a letter stating that I was overpaid benefits in the amount of $62000. I filed for a weaver which I was not qualified for, then I appealed and the judge ordered a recalculation and that amount went from $62K to $58K. I cannot pay this money and I need help in fighting that this was not my fault. My taxes will be garnished every year until this is paid off. I am hoping someone out there can be of assistance to me, I really need it.
Donya G.
Hello, I am sorry for the mix up. I worked with a client last year with similar circumstances. She was overpaid as well. We had a hearing and it was determined, since she had never filed before and English is not her first language that she had not done it intentionally so that fine on the payment was removed. That being said, if you were overpaid, you will need to repay the amount. She signed up on a payment plan. I suggest you do the same. If you need to engage my services to assist you, you can find me on Contracts Counsel website or my personal page Regards Donya Gordon

Demand Letter For Payment
Georgia
I am owed money for office work I did for a business owner that agreed to pay me for my hours, but hasn’t. I have sent a certified letter demanding my owed wages and the owner won’t respond to messages or anything….what should I do?
I was hired as a secretary for a small landscaping and grading company about a year and a half ago. The owner paid me for my hours I worked when I first started, but as a few months past, he fell behind on paying me and told me that he was going to pay me. After a few weeks I had to stop going there because he kept lying telling me he would pay me, but never did. I sent txt msgs and have proof of my wages owed and have sent a certified letter of demand but have not got a response. What are my next steps to file a lien or what to do?
Sunnita B.
Hello if you have sent a letter of demand the next step would be to file a small claims suit. However, depending on how much you are owed the suit may not be beneficial. Also, in order to recoup the money you have to go through litigation and win, then you have to figure out ways to get the money you are owed because the courts do not enforce money judgments.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
