If you can prove in court that you have been paid on a constant basis, you may prove that your verbal agreement is valid. In civil law you don't have to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt, but that it is more likely that not. if your employer had not ever paid you of it was on an on and off basis you couldn't prove your case.

First, a verbal agreement is generally as binding as a written agreement. The problem is that it is difficult to prove that you had a verbal contract. Even when you can prove a verbal agreement exists, it is usually hard to prove the precise terms of the agreement. However, there are some contracts that must be in writing. One such contract is a contract that cannot be completed in a year. Thus, depending on the terms of the contract, it may not be enforceable. If it is enforceable, you may have trouble proving it.
