You just made completed  really good sales for your employer, and you are expecting your fair share of the deals - the commission that you have earned as a saleswoman or salesman. Instead of appreciating your work, your employer fires you so he can take all of the benefit of your work without compensating you. That is unfair and illegal under New York Law. The employer should have given you a written agreement describing how the commissions are to be calculated and paid, and then he should have paid you according to that agreement.

Commission saleswomen and salesmen are often taken advantage by their employer when the employer fires them after they have made significant sales because the employer does not want to honor the commission agreement and share the profits by paying the commission earned and owed. Nor can your employer subject you to retaliation in New York State or New York City because you complain that you are not being paid the commission that you was agreed to and understood.
