FAQ

Contractual formalities are there to serve as a guide to the parties against any unforeseen circumstances that may lead to litigation. They serve to protect the parties upon concluding a legally binding contract and serve as proof if a dispute of facts arises from the contract.

There are four essential elements of forming a contract: offer, acceptance, consideration, and intention to create legal relations. Beyond this, the terms of the contract must also be unambiguous, and the parties must have the mental capacity to agree.

From a legal perspective, a contract is made when one party makes a valid offer and another party accepts that offer, and that can often be done verbally. However, Utah law requires that some types of agreements must be in writing.

The basic elements required for the agreement to be a legally enforceable contract are: mutual assent, expressed by a valid offer and acceptance; adequate consideration; capacity; and legality. In some states, elements of consideration can be satisfied by a valid substitute.

If these agreements are verbally made, the contract will be void or voidable: Sale or transfer of land. Sale of goods costing more than $500. Contracts that involve performance that can't be finished within a one-year timeframe. Contracts that will still be outstanding after one of the parties has passed away.
