For a moment I decided to move on. Now I got know that some team members now face same issue.

Company still operates and continues "product development" with rest of dedicated team.

Thanks for pointing that, this can help.

Around 40k. I'd be happy to give that money to lawyer if he's going to be punished. It's not only about money, it's about time wasted :/.

Thank you!

Yes, we're looking into that. Agreement says that its regulated by Delaware law and hearings should be done there.

Agreement states that we're independent contractors, but scope of work section tells:

  applications for the %company name% Platform.
  
  Your starting date will be %date%. You will work as a full-time member 
  of the team from %my location%. Full-time member assumed 
  to be working five days in a week (Monday till Friday), 8 hours a day.
