Add Comment Question: I was a commission based Mortgage Agent that was recently terminated from my Brokerage for unfounded reasons. My Broker did not follow required complaint resolution protocol. In addition, my former Broker is disparaging my reputation in the industry with lies. As a commission based Mortgage Agent, do I have grounds to sue? Answer: Yes, and possibly on multiple grounds. First and foremost, you are entitled to severance on the basis of your termination unless the employer had cause to terminate - which is a very high threshold to prove at law. Second, if you are being unfairly disparaged in your industry, then you may also have a claim for defamation and/or libel. As such, I recommend that you contact us at the number below to speak with an employment lawyer regarding how best to obtain your entitlements.
