You can't "enforce" an oral contract. The matter would need to be decided by a judge and you would need to provide compelling evidence that supports your position. Generally, if you didn't get it in writing then you have lost your opportunity to enforce the agreement. You should discuss your situation with an attorney who can explain your options.
