If you truly believe that you and your uncle had a clear understanding of each others obligations to each other, then you had a verbal contract. Under PA law a verbal contract is binding under circumstances such as this. Your biggest hurdle in bringing a claim against your uncle, will be proving exactly what each of you had agreed to. Without a written document, you will be in a “he said/she said” type of situation.

The short answer is, yes you can sue him, but it may be difficult to prove your case. Good luck.
