I was told by email from the CEO that I was on payroll as of August 24th 2021. Not only have I declined all other offers at that point, I work in an industry where it is not easy to find a new position quickly.

Do you have a question?
My lease is for another 24 months , not monthly . I pay the rent on a monthly bases like everyone else . I don’t think people go around paying 24 months in one payment .
"My lease is for another 24 months" -- this statement needs to be backed up by an enforceable written copy of lease. If you do not have a written lease that stipulates termination date to be in 24 months since the signing, what is enforceable is a monthly lease and can be terminated... Read more »

I signed a Restoration/Construction Services Proposal for them to come in and assess the interior damages and was told this obligated me in no way. They have not shown up for 3 appointments to give me roofing samples, yet they say they will sue if we don’t go with them.
If the proposal did not turn into a contract in anyway, you owe them no duty to perform, i.e, to hire them. Anyway, you need to read the proposal carefully or hire an attorney to review it to know for sure what your obligation is.

legally binding. When I did not receive a copy, I requested through the sender to provide the cert. They were unable to and couldn't find it. When I contacted Docusign to receive a copy, they informed me the contract was voided and that there was never a cert to provide. Even though I signed,... Read more »
It the other party to the contract (the "sender", as I understand you) says that they don't have it, get that in writing. If they later find it, with your signature, get a copy of that. I'm not sure how Docusign can decide the contract is "voided", if they are not a party to the contract.
I have been working full time on this business.

Since they can’t complete the order, aren’t they obligated to make the refund of the deposit?
If they cannot perform the contract, they need to pay or refund the partial amount sufficient for you to hire other person to finish the job.
