Can i sue an employer for breaking our verbal agreement?
If they were willing to verbally agree to your terms, then you should have gotten it in writing. A written agreement will hold up in court. With a verbal agreement, they can choose to change their minds, thus you have no formal contract to hold them to. Your verbal contract was based on you performing your job. Given the fact that you did not show up, they can terminate your employment immediately. Even if it was someone else’s fault, you did not perform your duties. Realize that a new employer will want to contact past jobs for references, don’t leave on bad terms.
