Legal Question in Business Law in New York
is a deal memo legally binding once all parties agree and sign infront of a CPA in the state of new york especially if the deal maker is getting screwed and terms of the agreement have changed for the new company.

That can't be answered without reading the memo and understanding what has changed.
Whether a deal memo / term sheet are binding or not depends on the language of the memo. Though generally, most term sheets and deal memo's are not binding, nonetheless your agreement needs to be reviewed to determine its applicability.
If the actual deal documents materially change the memo terms then one needs to raise this inconsistency with the other side immediately.
