Generally, to be legally valid, most contracts must contain two elements: 1  All parties must agree about an offer made by one party and accepted by the other.  Something of value must be exchanged for something else of value. This can include goods, cash, services, or a pledge to exchange these items.
To sum it up: for a contract to be enforceable, six elements must be present: 1  An offer made by the promisor. 2  An acceptance of the offer by the promisee. 3  Consideration in the form of money or a promise to do or not do something. 4  Mutuality between parties to carry out the promises of the contract. 5  Capacity of both parties in mind and age.
