FAQ
The governing law provision is commonly used by parties residing in different jurisdictions to ensure that one party does not have an advantage over each other party.
Contract law is governed by the common law and the Uniform Commercial Code "UCC." Common law governs contractual transactions with real estate, services, insurance, intangible assets and employment. UCC governs contractual transactions with goods and tangible objects (such as a purchase of a car).
Choice of Law Test The party who wants to apply foreign law must identify the foreign law and show that it is materially different from California law. If the laws are not different, the court should apply California law. The court determines what interest each state has in having its own law applied to the case.
Choice of law clauses are found in almost every contract. However, parties can sometimes use them strategically. For example, a business can set the choice of law in Delaware if they are headquartered in that state, even though they may be conducting business elsewhere in the country.
In Virginia, laws of two constitutions apply to you: first, the United States Constitution and, second, the Virginia Constitution.
Under the most significant relationship test, courts look to the following factors to determine which state's law applies: Location of contract formation. Where the relationship of the parties is/was centered. Location of contract negotiations. Location of performance of either or both parties.
So how do you choose which Governing Law is best for your contract? Although there are legal options potentially allowing you to choose at random, it is generally advisable to pick a jurisdiction you are connected to ? where your business is located, or perhaps where production is handled.
