A contract is an agreement between two or more parties to perform a service, provide a product or commit to an act, and is enforceable by law. There are several types of contracts, and each have specific terms and conditions.
Contract law is based on the principle expressed in the Latin phrase pacta sunt servanda, ( agreements must be kept). The common law of contract originated with the now-defuct writ of assumpsit, which was originally a tort action based on reliance.
