An agreement is not binding when it lacks essential elements such as mutual consent, consideration, or legal capacity. Additionally, agreements made under duress, fraud, or misrepresentation are also unenforceable. Furthermore, if the subject matter is illegal or contrary to public policy, the agreement cannot be upheld in court. Lastly, informal agreements that do not meet the legal requirements for a contract may also be non-binding.

Contracts are legally binding on both parties to them.
No. A prenuptial agreement (called a Binding Financial Agreement under the Family Law Act 1975 (Cth)) is not legally binding unless it is properly signed by both parties and each person has received independent legal advice from a qualified lawyer. To be valid and enforceable in Australia, the agreement must: Be in writing and signed by both parties. Include a statement of independent legal advice for each party. Be prepared in compliance with the Family Law Act. If these requirements aren’t met, the agreement may be considered void or unenforceable in court.
