The whois database for .US does not seem to have a phoenix.az.us or
plug.phoenix.az.us listing:

Short of that, file a mechanics lien with the State of Arizona:

The first step to filing a mechanics lien in Arizona is to verify you're
entitled to so file. This involves two primary considerations: (1) Whether
you're qualified to file as per the legal statutes; and (2) Whether you
protected your right to file by sending the required preliminary notice. As
far as who can file a mechanics lien, the Arizona law protects nearly
everyone except suppliers to suppliers. Further, while a written contract
is not usually required, a written contract is required if you're
furnishing to an owner-occupied residential property, and that contract
must be directly with the owner. As far as protecting your rights along the
way, everyone in Arizona is required to delivery a preliminary notice
within 20 days of first furnishing labor or materials to a construction
project.

This is simple legal paperwork with provision to serve Deru (any of us can
do this):
