What Is a Contract?
In order to create a legally binding contract, the law generally requires:
- offer;
- acceptance;
- consideration;
- mutuality of obligation;
- competency and capacity; and
- in certain circumstances, a written instrument.
However, contracts are not limited only to a printed forms that companies or individuals sign. Contracts may be formed by oral agreements supported by action or writings.

At Stokes Carmichael & Ernst LLP, we provide a full spectrum of contract representation to our clients. This includes:
