A Revealing Discussion And Conclusion Related To Employment Law And Age Discrimination In Addition To Comparable Research
Find a lawyer specializing in employment law for insurance broker.?
I've filed with the State of Illinois for age discrimination against my former employer - an insurance agency. I've also filed with the labor board because my former employer would not send me documentation on my final paycheck which is commission based. They just sent me a net check and didn't tell me how they derived the check amount.
I want to find a lawyer that understands how insurance agents are paid. I am in Property & Casualty and my commission are sometimes from 2 or 3 months in the past because of the way the company collects the premiums.
Does anyone know of a good resource to find a lawyer with experience in insurance? I can find them who are experienced on the "employer's" side but not the "employee's" side.
The state labor board or insurance commission should be able to help you.

The employment agency charges the customer. This means the Co looking for an employee.
It charges per hour of "usage" of the employee.
What happens is that the employee is an employee of the employment agency, but not of the customer.
The employee is an asset of the employment agency.
So, let's say you find a company that is loking for an employee.Let's say you have the perfect match.
So you tell the company, and the company accepts.
You charge the company $25 an hour, but you pay your employee $15
If the company decides that wants to keep the employee, you need to negotiate some paymetn from the company, because you are loosing your asset. Maybe 3 or 4 months worth of payments received if they did not keep the employee.
Now, your challenge is that if you don't get paid on time..you still need to pay your employee timely…. So you will need to have some cash available just in case. Not all companies pay timely.
Good luck!
