Most states are employment "at-will". Unless you have a contract, or union, or your handbook says you can only be fired for cause, your employer can fire you with or without cause.
So, as long as the decisin is not discriminatory (age, gender, etc), then you may be out of luck. In terms of your broker agreement, that may be a breach of contract situation. So, try www.attorneypages.com and see if anything can be done on the breach of contract. Check the lawyer's record at the Pennsylvania State Bar.
