Your mother is offered a new job with a new company. She begins working with the new company and her pay is triple that from her old job. You are very excited for your mother because she is hard-working and is very deserving of this raise. During your entire life, she has always offered to pay for an apartment that you are renting. Because of her increased pay, you decide to rent a nicer and more expensive apartment. One month later, your mother's new employer reduces her pay. You are furious. After all, you relied on the employer's promise before you rented the apartment. Would you be in a position to successfully sue your mother's employer for its breach of its agreement with your mother?

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

A promise means nothing unless it's on paper with a signature. Just because he said he would do something doesn't make him legally obligated to do the thing he said he would.
