My main focus is estate planning and business transactions, but I have had many practice areas throughout my career, including criminal defense and prosecution, civil litigation from neighborhood squabbles to corporate contentions. I have also worked in bankruptcy, family law, collections, employment law, and personal injury. I stand ready to assist in any area to which I feel I can be of service, but will not try to fake it if I do not know the area of law I am being asked to serve in.

Option Grant Agreement
California
What is 'strike price' in my employee stock option agreement?
Want to learn more about the agreement that is being presented to me. There is a 'strike price' that I am suppose to pay?
Michael M.
The strike price is defined as the price that the employee can exercise his/her options at. For example, if the strike price is $1.00, at the point the 100s options have vested, the aggregate amount owed to exercise would be $100.00
Employment
Cease and Desist
Georgia
When to send a Cease and Desist Letter?
I am a small business owner (retailer), and had a long time staff member (Michael) develop a drinking problem. He felt comfortable enough to come to work intoxicated on a few occasions putting the rest of the staff and my business at risk. He was a supporting manager and had keys to the store. One day he had to be driven home from work because he was too inebriated. Another staff member who drove him to his home gave him a couple of days to come clean to me before she would tell me what happened. He never told me even though i gave him every opportunity to do so. So I had a meeting with him and explained that I was disappointed and wanted to help him, but my business and family had to be protected as well so I took his keys and title away while keeping him employed and at the same pay rate. I did this in hopes that he would get some help and didn't have to worry about being unemployed. Then Covid hit. Had to shut down for a little while. I kept in communication with my team (including Michael) throughout. Everyone responded except Michael. When it was time to re-open I asked everyone to respond letting me know if they were coming back to work. Everyone responded except Michael. Never heard from him again. So, I terminated him under "job abandonment". He then went to work at another local shop, and so I was happy for him and went on with my life and business. A couple of weeks ago I started to get some messages from mutual friends asking me what Michael was posting about on Facebook and other platforms and it turns out he has been posting derogatory comments (all lies) about how we treated him horribly and these could affect my business. None of our staff members can see these posts directly because he has blocked us all. We have, however, been receiving screenshots from mutual friends. Again, this went down over two years ago! I kept him employed I paid him through the pandemic including doing his unemployment paperwork weekly. I didn't fire him. He chose not to come back to work I demoted him and kept him at the same pay rate I tried every way that I could to help him find help I simply want this to stop as I did nothing wrong and did much more than any other employer would have. His parents are enablers and are probably behind this.
Gregory F.
If the Michael has been posting false FACTUAL statements about you or your company, despite his knowledge that they are false, and reputational harm could occur, you may have a claim against him for defamation of character. If, on the other hand, he has been posting negative OPINIONS about you or your company, that is unfortunately not illegal and therefore a cease and desist letter would have no "teeth."
Business
Demand Letter
New York
Is a demand letter legally binding?
I recently received a demand letter from a former business partner who is claiming that I owe them money. This demand letter states that I must pay the amount specified by a certain date or face legal action. I am concerned about the legal implications of this demand letter and want to know if it is legally binding.
Gregory F.
Technically, the demand letter has no legal impact. It simply represents an offer to resolve a dispute via an out-of-court settlement under the threat of litigation. In your case, it appears from your description that your former business partner has demanded that you pay the disputed amount by a certain date or else s/he will commence a lawsuit against you. It is, of course, possible that even if you do not pay the amount demanded, your former business partner would decide not to pursue the lawsuit--in other words, it could be a bluff. However, if you call the bluff and ignore the letter, and your former business partner sues you, it could become a much more expensive problem for you. I would therefore strongly recommend that you retain an attorney to advise you and respond to the letter.

Independent Contractor Agreement
Texas
If you 1099 could they make you pay for lunch
Working as a Flagger work 10hrs with no breaks
J.R. S.
The short answer is yes. As an independent contractor, you bear the risk of profit and loss, employee rules regarding breaks and meals do not apply, nor does the overtime rules.
Business
Founders' Agreement
California
Can a founders agreement be modified after it has been signed?
I am part of a startup team and we have recently signed a founders agreement that outlines the roles, responsibilities, and equity distribution among the founders. However, as we continue to work together and the business evolves, we have realized that certain aspects of the agreement need to be modified to better reflect our current needs and goals. We would like to know if it is possible to make amendments to the founders agreement, and if so, what is the process and potential implications of doing so.
Phillip Z.
Yes, a founders agreement can be modified after signing, but several steps must be followed: 1. Mutual Consent: All founders must agree to the changes. 2. Documentation: Changes should be documented in an amendment referencing the original contract and specifying which clauses are modified. All parties must sign this amendment. 3. Legal Review: A lawyer should review the changes to ensure they are legally sound. 4. Consistency: Ensure changes align with other legal documents. Approach modifications carefully, as they can significantly impact the startup's rights, obligations, and ownership structure.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
