A contract is an agreement between two or more parties. For a contract to be valid and enforceable by law it must contain a number of elements. That is, it must follow a set of principles. If these elements are present then the contract is enforceable and must be honored. Failure to honor a contract can lead the party harmed by the failure of the other party to satisfy the contract to seek legal remedy.
Contracts in Everyday Life
So much of everyday life depends upon contracts. People buy or sell property, exchange goods or services, get married. Some contracts are rather informal and may be merely an oral agreement or understanding. Other contracts are written in precise legal terminology and may require acknowledgment by a notary public and/or be filed in a court of law.
Whether the contract is informal or formal, written or oral, understanding the basic principles and elements of contract law can help avoid legal disputes in the future. A consumer using a checklist of the elements of the contract itself can determine whether the mutual set of expectations and obligations are understood so that they can be fulfilled. These elements of law are vaild in all civil law systems and by internation agreements.
