Unpaid Commissions
One aspect of an unpaid wage case may be the fact that a sales person is missing commissions that they are owed from sales that they made. It is a violation of state and federal employment laws to withhold that compensation, or any compensation, during the course of employment.

There are many different types of unpaid wage situations that may lead to a claim for unpaid sales commissions, including:
- Closed a major deal and did not receive the correct commission payment
- Landed the sales project, arranged meetings, closed the deal and performed the majority of the work for the project - but are told the project was a team effort
- Failed to receive a contractually specified bonus or commission
If your employer is found to be liable for withholding compensation and unpaid sales commissions, there are laws that may provide compensation for you in excess of what was originally owed. Your legal fees may also be paid by the employer if your employer’s refusal to pay your sales commission was made in bad faith.
It is important to note that you cannot waive your right to employment compensation or sales commissions by signing a contract. Your employer is obligated to pay you according to the regulations of the business and the laws that govern the way in which they treat and pay employees.
