I can't give you a definite answer without reviewing your actual contract. You need to speak with an attorney to determine whether you do have a breach of contract claim, or whether the language of the agreement allows the company to change it's policy regarding payment of post-termination commissions. Generally, the rule is that the contract will control. If there is no contract, then courts look at the custom in the industry and to what extent any work remains to bring the loans to closing that must be completed by another employee.
