I received shares by working for lower wages. The company belongs to my brother-in-law. There was never any promise of profit sharing; just the idea that someday he might sell it and I would get a piece. Can he just pay himself the profits forever, or close the company and start a new one with a new name? Does my 5% ownership give me any rights? Can I ask to see the books? It's a very small consulting company. It has "Inc." in the name, if that means anything. I am in California.
