The Law of Contracts

The Law of Contracts explores the law of contracts in an attempt to make this complex area of the law easy to understand. The necessary requirements to form a valid, enforceable contract are discussed, as are the remedies available should there be a breach of the contract. Common contract clauses are explained, and a simple contract is analyzed. An appendix provides samples of common contractual clauses and more. A glossary of terms is also included.
The Legal Almanac series serves to educate the general public on a variety of legal issues pertinent to everyday life and to keep readers informed of their rights and remedies under the law. Each volume in the series presents an explanation of a specific legal issue in simple, clearly written text, making the Almanac a concise and perfect desktop reference tool.
