The arrangement is binding, but you need to prove the terms and that they agreed to hold off. That can include e-mails, texts, and even witness statements.

It helps to prepare your case with a good narrative or story of what happened. This helps focus the presentation of the facts and arguments. It is often useful to have a chronological timeline of events with facts and back up evidence (e.g. e-mails, texts, photos, witnesses)In your situation, I also think that you would benefit from local representation. www.justia.com/lawyers and www.avvo.com are both excellent resources that let you find a local lawyer by location and practice area.
