Hi,
Couldn’t find a good place to post this. Hope it’s ok here.
I am working a job where I have discovered I am misclassified as a contractor.
They are (probably) about to fire me - I requested switching over to a W2 and they responded with a curt email and a request for a quick call tomorrow.
I strongly believe they are going to terminate my contract.
I am in CO, but the contract says the laws of CA will apply.
How can I protect myself before and after this call, especially since I am considering reporting them to the IRS?
Thank you

I second this. It’s also a good idea to start keeping copies of your time cards and / or creating handwritten (and dated) records of your duties. It is my unferstanding that handwritten and dated notes tend to have a decent amount of legal weight in terms of credibility. This SHOULD make your lawyers job easier.
