In negotiating salary and benefits for a job I accepted in Dec 2000, my future boss promised me a sign-on bonus and a retention bonus to be paid after one full year of employment.
I received the sign-on bonus in Jan 2001. Two weeks ago, I was informed that my position was being eliminated. As part of the discussion with the HR director, I inquired about the retention bonus. The HR Director new nothing about it. My boss is now denying he made the offer.
Would that offer constitute a legally binding contract? If so, how do I get my money?
