CONTRACT LAW REVIEW NOTES
FORMATION OF A CONTRACT
Contract is:
• An agreement between 2 parties
• Legally binding
• A promise or a set of promises which are enforceable in law


Formation of a Contract:

1. Offer

to the agreement of the other party
• Must be definite and certain
• Cannot be vague, must be some level of certainty
• Must be communicated to the intended recipient
• It is intended to be binding on both of the parties as soon as it is
accepted
o Example: Ill pay $500 for your make/model/type of car
on this date and it becomes an offer

terms favourable to the offeror that cannot be changed
