A contract is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties that outlines the rights and obligations of each party.
Contracts can be written or verbal, ranging from simple tasks to complex corporate mergers.
To be legally enforceable, contracts must include certain key elements, such as mutual assent, consideration, capacity, genuine consent, and legality of terms.
If a contract is breached, the innocent party is entitled to claim damages to compensate for their loss. The goal of damages is to restore the innocent party to the position they would have been in if the contract had been fulfilled.
