Unfortunately, depending on the state in which you live, you are probably in a pretty hard spot. In most states neither your original employer (seller) nor the new business owner (buyer) are obligated to continue your employment or offer severance.

Unless you have an employment contract guaranteeing your income / tenure, you probably need to hit the unemployment office to activate your unemployment benefits. The only good news is that you would qualify for full unemployment since you lost the job due to no fault of your own.

Good luck finding something else.

Think you need to have a word with the person who sold the business,or even better a solicitor who deals with employment issues

The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006, commmonly known as TUPE, refer.
