What is the difference between illegal contracts and void contracts?

A void contract may have been valid at one time, whereas an illegal contract is never valid unless a law making the contract illegal is passed while the contract is still in effect.
So, an illegal contract is void, but a void contract is not typically an illegal contract.

∙ 13y agoThis is a great question because this is a subtle difference. A breach of contract can be excused when the contract is found to be void. There are many grounds for voiding a contract, most common are minors and those individuals that are mentally incompetent. In general, a party engages in fraud when he or she misrepresents a material fact to induce another party to act or refrain from acting towards formation of a contract. Persons charging other with fraud must prove that the person making the representation knew or should have known that it was false, that he or she intended for the other party to rely on it, and that the party did in fact rely on it, resulting in damages.

A void agreement had a specific event, time and/or start that made the agreement void.
