Am I bound by an oral contract?

In most instances, the employee and the employer are not bound by oral contract, and that is a great misconception that predominantly employees have. For instance, if your boss says, "If you work till the end of the year, I guarantee you a bonus of ten thousand dollars," that is not a binding contract in the state of New York. And many employees are shocked to learn that. I would recommend that everything always be put in writing and be signed by the employee and the employer if it's concerning something as important as your compensation.
