How a Software & It Services Business Hired a Lawyer to Review a Software Agreement in Minnesota

Hello! Thanks for coming to contractscounsel.com'. To modify a contract legally, the following requirements must be met: All parties to the contract must agree to the modification. This means that both parties must sign and date the amendment to the contract. The parties to the contract need new consideration -- something of legal value -- to modify a contract. For example, if a party wants more money for something they would need to provide additional performance in exchange. A writing is not required for a modification, but it is recommended. In this case, without offering something additional to the software application developer and without the developer's consent for something like this, then legally speaking, modifications would be invalid. I recommend coming to this site and having us incorporate the suggested modifications. Best of luck! Dolan

Certainly you may modify the agreement, however, you must get the other side to agree in writing to the changes. And you should modify elements that you view as unfair or unreasonable.
