Employment Agreement

Missouri

Asked on Oct 27, 2021

Is my non-compete enforceable?

If a small company made you a verbal offer of salary, car, health insurance assistance then after you signed the employment agreement, including non compete, made excuses and never made good on the car and the insurance assistance, is the non compete enforceable. I singed based on promises of a partnership and those additional perks since they didn't provide any other benefits. I turned down other opportunities because of the partnership potential and brought my own equipment and opportunity. Now after providing new business opportunity I asked for some protection in writing regarding partnership in the new technology, mainly developed by me and partly carried over from previous experience. Instead of getting the promised protection in writing I got fired. I know that it isn't in writing because of excuses but I also know they would never lie under oath. They are many things but they wouldn't do that for very religeous reasons. The non compete is onerous and those perks were to sweeten the deal so I would sign. I even met with their attorney to complain about it before signing based on their promises which then never materialized and were not provided in writing.

Donya G.

Answered Nov 30, 2021

I suggest you seek an employment attorney in your area to discuss. If they are so religious, what happened to you should not have. An agreement for the partnership need to be in writing to be enforceable. If you signed an employment agreement, then you should have signed something when you were leaving. An attorney would need to review both documents to advise you going forward. All the best

Demand Letter For Payment

Georgia

Asked on May 13, 2022

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.

Answered May 20, 2022

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.

Cease and Desist

Washington

Asked on Sep 3, 2024

Can I send a cease and desist letter to someone who is spreading false information about me online?

I am a small business owner and recently discovered that a former employee has been spreading false and damaging information about me and my business on social media. This false information is negatively impacting my reputation and causing potential clients to question the credibility of my business. I want to put a stop to this and protect my reputation, so I am considering sending a cease and desist letter to the individual. I would like to know if it is legally appropriate and effective to send such a letter in this situation.

Merry K.

Answered Sep 6, 2024

What I suggest you do is write a polite, professional, and firm letter to the person(s) and send the letter in a manner in which you will get a receipt, such as certified, return receipt through the post office (this costs $8.75). Keep copies of everything. Let the person know they must stop immediately and remove any and all defamatory posts.. Do not make any threats. You can have an attorney do this for you, but it will probably cost you around $1000. After you send this letter, if the problem doesn't stop, the next step would be to get a civil anti-harassment order through court. This is something you can do yourself. If this doesn't work, you can return to court with a request (motion) to the judge to hold the defendant (respondent) in contempt and ask the court to impose fines. Another option, of course, is to sue for defamation (even for a business), but this type of case would cost you thousands and thousands of dollars, and there's no guaranty than you would win and get paid by the defendant. Although this is a "women's law" website, the website has a great explanation of various types of restraining orders in Washington State. Please look at the explanation for civil harassment: https://www.womenslaw.org/laws/wa/restraining-orders/civil-anti-harassment-orders You can, of course, skip writing a letter and go straight to filling for harassment, but judges tend to like to see some reasonable effort on the part of litigants to resolve their problems on their own prior to going to court. I normally would offer to help you, but I'm going to be traveling and am not available until some time after October 17th or so. I also do not engage in litigation any more myself. Oh, I want you to know that most Washington counties have a website for their courts that provide lots of information and forms for obtaining various types of restraining orders. Best wishes, Merry Kogut

Promissory Note

New York

Asked on Jun 1, 2022

Breach of contract: Promissory note

Someone owe my money which he took as a loan signing a promissory note. He moved out of Syracuse, NY and know that he is living in the state of Ohio. How can I sue him to collect $7,286? Please help.

Donya G.

Answered Jun 14, 2022

Does your promissory note talk about what happens if he doesn't pay? Does the law of NY apply to your agreement? If so, you can sue in NY court. In order to get a firm answer on what to do, I would need to review the promissory note and see what it says. You can connect with me and engage my services through Contracts Counsel. Donya Gordon
