In a contract, each party has rights and obligations. Rights refer to the benefits or entitlements each party can expect to receive under the agreement, while obligations are the duties or responsibilities that each party is required to fulfill. These elements ensure that both parties are aware of their roles and can seek remedies if the contract is breached. Overall, a contract serves to create mutual understanding and enforceability between the parties involved.

The main parties to a contract are the people who sign the contract. Each party that signs the contract is bound by everything written in the contract.
In a legally binding contract, the party is a person or entity that agrees to the terms and obligations outlined in the contract. Each party involved in the contract is responsible for fulfilling their agreed-upon duties and can be held legally accountable if they fail to do so.
You pay only what you agree to pay in the contract. If the mediation fee was not addressed in the contract, each party will pay their own mediation fees, as agreed to by the mediator and the party prior to the mediation.
Each party must agree to do something in exchange for what the other party is doing. For example, I agree to pay $20, and you agree to give me a game. This is a contract.
When one party to a contract does not perform his duties they are in breach of contract and there are legal implications. Each party to a contract makes a promise to either perform a certain duty or pay a certain amount. If one party fails to act as promised, and the other party has fulfilled the duties under the contract, the other party is entitled to legal relief. When one party has breached the contract, the party who has performed is entitled to various remedies for the breach. * Consequential damages - This requires the breaching party to pay the non-breaching party an amount that puts the non-breaching party in the same position they would have been in if the contract was performed * Punitive damages - Courts can force the breaching party to make a payment as a punishment for the breach of contract * Liquidated damages - The parties agree, at the time they make the contract, that if one party breaches the contract, the breaching party should pay a specified sum. Thus, this is an amount written in the contract * Nominal damages - This is a minimal amount provided to the non-breaching party if that party won the case but did not financially lose much In certain situations, they can also get specific performance of the contract.
When drafting a three-party contract, it is important to clearly define the roles and responsibilities of each party, ensure mutual agreement on terms and conditions, address potential conflicts of interest, and include provisions for dispute resolution. Additionally, it is crucial to specify the rights and obligations of each party, outline the scope of work or services to be provided, and include clauses for termination and breach of contract.

Consideration is the benefit received by each party in a contract in exchange for something given or promised. It ensures that each party is bound by a mutual exchange, making the contract legally enforceable. It also demonstrates a commitment by both parties to fulfill their respective obligations.
In law, a contract is any legally binding agreement voluntarily entered into by two or more parties that places an obligation on each party to do or not do something for one or more of the other parties and that gives each party the right to demand the performance of whatever is promised to them by the other parties. Contract also has a generic meanings to reduce in size or to acquire by infection or contagion.

Ambiguity in a contract happens when there is a term, or set of terms, that are not defined, that can be construed to have more than one meaning (hence the ambiguity in the contract). When this happens, the ambiguity is construed against the drafter of the contract since it was the party that drafted the contract. The drafter of the contract had the opportunity to define each of the terms in the contract before presenting it to the other party to execute. The person agreeing to the contract that is not the drafter often does not have the ability to alter the contractual terms or definitions contained in the contract. Further, the drafter of the contract often is the "savvy business person" or "savvy business entity" that use contracts all the time. To get around this, often a drafter will put a section in the contract that states that each party to the contract assisted in drafting the contract, which will help the drafter make the argument that the potential for an ambiguity being construed against the drafter is eliminated.
