Contract Law Basics An offer by one party for goods or services. An acceptance of the offer by the other party. Consideration for the offer. There must be a "bargained-for" exchange of value to benefit both parties from the contract.
The key principles of consideration in contract law are: 1) It must have value; 2) It must be negotiated and agreed upon by both parties; 3) It must be something that the law regards as having value; 4) It must be present or future, not past.
What are the essential elements of a contract? There are seven essential elements an agreement must have to be considered a valid contract. The elements of a contract include identification, offer, acceptance, consideration, meeting of the minds, competency and capacity, and contract legality.
A contract is created at law when there is a mutual exchange of promises upon reasonably understandable terms and conditions. A contract does not have to be reduced to writing in order to be enforceable; however, for the purposes of this manual, the term contract is intended to mean a written form of communication.
For a contract to be valid and recognized by the common law, it must include certain elements-- offer, acceptance, consideration, intention to create legal relations, authority and capacity, and certainty. Without these elements, a contract is not legally binding and may not be enforced by the courts.
To that end, several key elements constitute contract formation; contract law is shaped by considerations of public policy, and parties involved, such as the offeror, must be aware of these legal principles. Those elements are offer, consideration, acceptance, and mutuality.

Every contract, whether simple or complex, is considered legally enforceable when it incorporates six essential elements: Offer, Acceptance, Awareness, Consideration, Capacity and Legality. It is critical that all six elements are present—just one missing element can make a contract invalid and unenforceable.
A contract will only be legally binding upon the contracting parties if the following requirements are complied with: consensus, contractual capacity, certainty, possibility, legality and formalities. 39 The above requirements will be discussed next. 39Para 1 1 above.
Both parties must clearly understand and agree to the terms outlined in the contract. Additionally, consideration, or something of value exchanged between the parties, must be present to support the contract's validity. Moreover, legality and the capacity of the parties involved are essential components to consider.
