How a Manhattan Contract Attorney Can Help

I can assist your business or corporation with a number of contract law matters, including:

Contractual Formation

To be legally viable, a contract of any kind needs to meet certain requirements. The details are complex and can vary from one jurisdiction to another, but the basic parts of a contract are:

  • Agreement: This refers to the series of offers and counter-offers that usually precedes a business contract. It is generally a good idea to recognize all agreements in writing.
  • Eligibility: All of the parties to a business contract must be of legal age, of sound mind and body, and authorized to make the decision under discussion for their businesses.
  • Consideration: This is the legal term for the gains each party will make. This part of the contract also should spell out what each party will contribute, when or how often they will contribute, and what will be done if they fail to do so.
