I started working for a LLC in 2007 under a signed agreement for $50,000 yearly salary + 2% commission. In 2008, the majority owner was trying to buy out the 49% investors. I was asked if I would like to have a 2% investment in the company. I agreed. A few months later I find out that I now receive guaranteed payments, not wages, where I am responsible for self employment taxes. I have had to take no pay as well when things were slow. Recently, I have not received any “guaranteed payments” for 12 weeks. I am hurting financially and wondering if I have any protection to recoup money that is owed to me. I have the signed offer letter from 2007 when I started working stating my salary. Did this change once I obtained a 2% investment in the company? I think I am being taken advantage of and the majority owner is saying that owners get paid last and sometimes won’t get paid at all. Is he right in saying this and not paying me? I’m in dire need of assistance.

What is one’s best course of action to receive reimbursement for tuition paid for a course taken in medical sales, where according to our contact, this technical institution in question has 90 days from the day of my graduation, to place me in an employment situation. They did not place me in 90 days, and I have a signed contract that they will reimburse me. How do I enforce this and get my refund? Also, in the State of CO aren’t damages sought in treble around owed money/breach of contract?

I have a former employer (manager) making false statements about my employment and my reasons for leaving. I don’t know what she is saying to anyone calling for a refrence but she has told people I used to work with, my replacement, and 1 person at my current employmer false information. This includes things such as I committed fraud, I stabed her in the back, and that I got her in trouble with a client. This happened in Miami, FL. Do I have any recourse?
