I am an employee of a large corporation in PA. I came to work for this company 14 months ago. Prior to my employment with this company I worked for a smaller company and had engaged discussions with a firm to use our services.

When I came over to my present employer the discussions with the said firm carried over and we began to do business.

Now we are in a big dispute about the charges that we are billing. The firm is saying that when I was with the smaller firm I said a certain fee would apply (they do have emails to this affect), yet my current firm charges a different fee structure. They "assumed" that everything I did at Company A would carry over to Company B, despite giving a written quote at the new firm.

They are disputing $50K in charges and I am afraid they may try to personally sue me for some type of "malpractice". Can a company sue an individual Sales Rep, or am I protected in some way from this??
