into voluntarily by two parties or more with the intention of creating a legal
obligation in which there is a promise to do something in return for a valuable
benefit known as consideration.

the heart of most business dealings, it is one of the significant areas of
legal concern and can involve variations on circumstances and complexities. The
existence of a contract requires finding the following factual elements
