Contract Lawyers basically get involved in preparing, advising and litigating commercial contracts. These contracts include partnership contracts, standard form contracts, consumer contracts, service contracts and business sales & acquisitions. These can take many forms but generally fall into two main categories: standard form contracts; and contracts which are individually negotiated. Experienced drafting of contracts is essential if a business is going to maintain its competitive advantage and contract with its customers, suppliers and others on terms which are beneficial to that business.
The last 30 years has seen huge growth in the protection of consumers and, more generally, restraint on businesses from being free to contract as they wish. Specialist rules on unfair contract terms, contracts with consumers generally and on contracts dealing with particular matters or concluded in particular ways require that every business must proceed carefully when contracting with any other business or consumer.

News, updates and further information - Contract Law & Lawyers
A contract is a legally enforceable agreement between two or more parties with mutual obligations, which may or may not have elements in writing. Contracts can also be formed orally (parol contracts). The remedy at law for breach of contract is usually "damages" or monetary compensation. In equity, the remedy can be specific performance of the contract or an injunction. Both remedies award the damaged party the "benefit of the bargain" or expectation damages, which are greater than mere reliance damages, as in promissory estoppel.
The different types of contracts:
With certain specific exceptions, contracts do not have to be in writing to be legally binding.
However, signed written contracts are usually the most desirable form of contract, especially when it comes to business arrangements. After all:
- the contents (‘terms’) are in writing for all to see
- they can ensure that precise language is used in describing the terms of the agreement
- there is, therefore, less opportunity for misunderstandings and conflicting assumptions
- there is less need to rely on memories of what was originally agreed
- the individuals involved in the transaction may change over time.
- Verbal agreements can be just as binding as written agreements.
- Contracts can be a mixture of verbal and written term.
Verbal agreements may be difficult to prove, difficult to remember precisely, and open to misunderstanding. In resolving a dispute on this issue, the conduct and statements made by each party leading up to the contract under challenge will be the critical issue.
In business arrangements, it is usually preferable to have all terms of the agreement in writing in order to avoid the problems of:
-proving a contract existed
-proving it to be a complete or incomplete document
-proving verbal undertakings
-interpreting people’s conduct.
-Summary of important issues
-Written contracts
-When a contract is signed, it is generally assumed that all the terms have been -read and agreed to.
-If unsigned, a written contract must:
-be presented to and understood by all parties to be valid before the -transaction occurs, and
-be recognised by all parties as a contract, that is, it must look like a -contract and not simply a receipt or docket.
-Clearly, unsigned contracts may be more difficult to enforce.
Verbal Agreements & Verbal Contracts
Verbal agreements rely on the good faith of all the parties and can be difficult to prove.
Conversely, in some situations, insisting on a detailed written agreement may be counter productive if:
- the value of the transaction is not particularly high, and/or
- the presentation of a substantial document, possibly with many provisions, may raise more questions and uncertainty in the minds of the parties than it resolves, ending in the transaction not proceeding.
If you are confident of the good faith of the party, a shorter form of written arrangement may be the best course of action.
Do not automatically think that because it is not in writing, it can never be proved.
Verbal agreements or verbal contracts can be supported by:
- the conduct of the other party both before and after the agreement
- specific actions of the other party
- past dealings with the other party
