Recent amendments to the Virginia Wage Payment Act give a plaintiff the right to sue for unpaid commissions in Virginia.  Under the Wage Payment Act as amended in 2020, workers now have the right to sue in court for unpaid wages, including performance-based bonuses and commissions. A prevailing plaintiff can recover any unpaid commissions, as well as liquidated damages (double damages for most violations and treble damages for knowing violations), prejudgment interest, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
