Letter of Agreement

A Letter of Agreement sets out the terms of a working relationship by including information such as the contact information of both parties, the agreed-upon terms, including payment, when the agreement goes into effect, and when it will end. Outlining the terms of your arrangement through a Letter of Agreement will help you protect your legal rights and know your responsibilities.

Making a Letter of Agreement online is simple. Just answer a few questions and Rocket Lawyer will build your document for you. Consider these questions beforehand to make the process speedier:

• What issue or matter was the subject of the negotiations?
• What are the terms the parties have agreed to?
• When will the agreement become effective?
• When will this agreement end?

If you don't have all of the details you need, you can skip questions and save your document for later.

A contract is legally binding while a Letter of Agreement is usually non-binding, unless it is signed by both parties.

There are numerous types of contracts, but four common types of contracts include:

• Unilateral contracts - Involve an action undertaken by one person or group alone. In contract law, unilateral contracts allow only one person to make a promise or agreement.
• Bilateral contracts - Unlike unilateral contracts, bilateral contracts involve promises made by both parties.
• Express contracts - The terms of an express contract are explicitly set out, whether orally or in writing.
• Implied contracts - The terms of an implied contract, in contrast to an express contract, come about non-verbally and are inferred from the actions of the other party.
