FAQ

Contract acceptance refers to the act of one party agreeing to the terms proposed by another party as presented in an offer. The acceptance must meet the criteria established by law in order for the contract to be legally binding.

1. Offer 2(a): An offer refers to a promise that is dependent on a certain act, promise, or forbearance given in exchange for the initial promise. 2. Acceptance 2(b): When the person to whom the proposal is made, signifies his assent there to, the proposal is said to be accepted.

Offer and acceptance: An offer is a statement or action that indicates a willingness to agree. Acceptance is an agreement to the terms of an offer by the other party. An offer must be communicated to the person who is meant to accept it and may be made by words or conduct.

Under Georgia law, for a contract to be valid, there must be an offer, acceptance, consideration, and mutual assent. See O.C.G.A. § 13-3-1. In the context of email communications, an offer can be made through an email, or contemporaneous emails, containing terms of a proposed agreement.

Offer, acceptance and consideration are the main building blocks of any contract. Until all three of those things are present, there isn't a legally enforceable agreement. This is an overview of the basics that everyone should understand when negotiating a contract in business or any other aspect of life.

An Offer is an expression of willingness to contract on certain terms. It is made with the intention that it will become binding, once it has been accepted. Offers can be specific or general. Specific offers are made to individuals or groups of people and the offer can only be accepted by that group.

The communication of acceptance is deemed to be made by any act or omission of the party accepting, by which he intends to communicate such acceptance or which has the effect of communicating it. For a valid contract, the acceptance must be communicated and moreover, such communication should be made to the offeror.

In Short. A valid offer must be clear, communicated and made with the intention of creating legal relations. Acceptance must be unconditional, timely and communicated. Duress, capacity and mutual conduct can affect contract validity. Silence may count as acceptance in specific situations.
