Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Stock Subscription Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Apr 13, 2025

Is a stock subscription agreement legally binding if it was not signed by both parties?

I recently entered into a stock subscription agreement with a company, where I agreed to purchase a certain number of shares in exchange for a specific amount of money. However, I just realized that the agreement was only signed by me and not by the company. I am now concerned about the legality and enforceability of the agreement, and I would like to know if it is still binding even though it was not signed by both parties.

Jerome L.

Answered Apr 15, 2025

This is an important concern, and the enforceability of a stock subscription agreement without both parties' signatures depends on several factors, including the intent of the parties, performance under the agreement, and state law governing the contract. 1. Signatures and Enforceability Generally, for a contract to be legally binding, there must be mutual assent—that is, both parties must agree to the terms. While a signature is the most common way to show assent, a written signature by both parties is not always required to create a binding contract. If you signed the agreement and the company later accepted payment, issued shares, or otherwise began performing under the terms of the agreement, that conduct may be enough to demonstrate acceptance and create a binding agreement—even without the company’s signature. 2. Evidence of Mutual Assent Key things to consider: Did the company accept your payment or issue any form of acknowledgment? Have you received confirmation of share allocation, receipts, or account statements? Was there any written or verbal communication confirming the company’s agreement to the terms? These facts may establish that a contractual relationship exists, even if the formal document was not fully executed. 3. Risk Without Signature If the company has not yet taken any action—and there is no other evidence of acceptance—you may be in a more uncertain position. Without both parties’ signatures or performance, a court may view the agreement as incomplete or non-binding. Next Steps: Review all communication and transaction records for evidence of the company’s intent to be bound. If no performance has occurred, you may want to seek confirmation or a countersignature before proceeding further. If needed, a legal review of the agreement and context can help determine whether the contract is enforceable and what remedies may be available if there’s a dispute. I would be happy to assist with reviewing your agreement and advising you on how best to move forward.

Terms and Conditions

Florida

Asked on Nov 30, 2023

Why are terms and conditions long?

I am a small business owner who is in the process of creating a website for my business. I have been researching terms and conditions for websites, and I noticed that most of them are very long. I want to make sure that my terms and conditions are comprehensive to protect my business, but I am worried that if they are too long, customers may not read them. That is why I am asking why terms and conditions are so long.

Diane D.

Answered Dec 19, 2023

Because every type of situation needs to be covered to protect you. That cannot be done in a paragraph or two.

Real Property

Real Estate Sale Agreement

Massachusetts

Asked on Jun 13, 2024

Can a seller back out of a Real Estate Sale Agreement after signing it?

I recently entered into a Real Estate Sale Agreement with a seller to purchase a property. However, a few days after signing the agreement, the seller expressed their desire to back out of the deal. They claim that they received a better offer from another buyer. I'm wondering if the seller has the right to do this, or if I have any legal recourse to enforce the agreement and proceed with the purchase of the property.

Moss S.

Answered Jun 14, 2024

It all depends on the contingencies that are contained in the agreement. Some of those contingencies include an inspection, financing, title defects and more. I would have to review the agreement to let you know precisely what rights that you have to terminate the transaction.

Industrial Building Lease

Kansas

Asked on Jul 7, 2025

Can the landlord change the terms of an industrial building lease agreement without my consent?

I recently signed a lease agreement for an industrial building to use as a manufacturing facility for my business. However, the landlord has informed me that they want to make changes to certain terms of the lease, such as increasing the rent and reducing the duration of the lease, without seeking my consent. I am concerned about my rights as a tenant and whether the landlord has the authority to unilaterally modify the lease agreement without my agreement.

Cherie M.

Answered Jul 15, 2025

Unless there is something in the agreement that states otherwise, no, they are not allowed to make those kinds of changes without your consent.

Event Space Rental Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Apr 30, 2025

Is it legal for an event space rental agreement to require the renter to pay for any damages caused by their guests?

I am currently in the process of renting an event space for a private gathering, and the rental agreement provided by the venue includes a clause stating that I, as the renter, will be held responsible for any damages caused by my guests during the event. I am concerned about the legality of this provision and whether it is enforceable. I want to ensure that I am not unfairly burdened with the financial responsibility for any potential damages caused by my guests.

Jeff G.

Answered May 6, 2025

Hi. Yes, it is both common and legal for an event space owner to hold a renter liable for damages caused to the space by the renter's guests. If you are concerned about your guests causing damage, it would be prudent to remove such guests from your invite list. Otherwise, you can always purchase event insurance to cover you in the event of some liability.
