What is an Acknowledgement Agreement?

An acknowledgement agreement is a legal document formalizing some agreement between parties. The agreement acts as an official acknowledgement of the particular fact the parties are agreeing to. Sometimes this is used to have one party agree to restrictions or obligations that are not set out in an original agreement.

Acknowledgement agreements can take place in mortgage and lending situations allowing a creditor to obtain security interest. In addition, it can be used between companies to outline a specific change and the agreement of action over that change.

Notice of acceptance of this subordination is hereby waived, and this agreement shall be immediately binding upon DCV, and the successor, and permitted assigns of DCV.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
