Dispute Legal Questions and Answers

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.

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

Contractual Agreement

Florida

Asked on Aug 17, 2021

I am being harassed by a vendor for the balance due for product that i have not received yet. Can i take them to court?

After receiving the incorrect product, the vendor presented me with a fake contract with my signature copy pasted on it to tell me I i agreed on the replacement product for my order. They claim they had a second meeting with me and this new contract was signed but that never happened.

Donya G.

Answered Oct 12, 2021

I would suggest hiring an attorney in your jurisdiction to send a cease and desist letter to the vendor or have them simply call the vendor nd tell them to stop harassing you. For a cease and desist to have the effect that matters, it should be from a licensed attorney in that state who can file any case in court if the matter is not addressed or continues to happen. I am an attorney licensed in New York and Connecticut. There are numerous attorneys on this website from other states. If you would like me to assist, please contact me through the site or post your jobs for another attorney. All the best Donya Gordon
