Hypothetical question

I'm in a difficult situation in Massachusetts and trying to figure out my next steps.

employer changed my status to contractor. I've been dealing with this for about 2 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 9 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?
