To draw up and conclude an important contract, of course, it is worth contacting a law firm or at least a lawyer you know, thanks to which the contract will become not only competent, but also beneficial for you. However, it is not always possible to involve lawyers. Everyone will be able to draw up a simple contract, provided that several rules are followed.
It is necessary
It is important to keep at hand the current edition of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, which contains general provisions on contracts and norms applicable to different types of contracts
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way is to download ready-made templates of the required contract from the Internet. As a rule, the network offers a fairly large number of samples of the same contract available for download. However, not all of these samples are well prepared, in addition, it is not at all necessary that they will contain exactly the conditions that are important to you. If you have chosen this path, then it is worth downloading at least a few templates and compiling from them what suits you.
Step 2
A much better option is to draw up a contract yourself. To do this, you will need the Civil Code (not all, of course, but only sections concerning general provisions and contracts and specific provisions on the contract that interests you). It is his rules that will help determine the essential terms of the contract, i.e. those conditions without which the contract cannot be considered concluded. Such an agreement can easily be recognized as not concluded in court, and in this case everything received under it will have to be returned.
Step 3
Essential are those conditions that are recognized as such by law, i.e. directly in the law it should be said that for this type of contract it is required to agree on these conditions. For any contract, an essential condition is its subject - what the parties agree on. The rest of the conditions will be a little more difficult, since they are rarely clearly indicated in the law. But they can be recognized using simple logic. The essential conditions must express the essence of the contract, without them the contract has no meaning. For example, for a sales contract, the essential conditions are the product itself (its name) and its quantity.
It is also worth paying attention to the essential conditions when drawing up a contract using templates, since the compilers of templates do not always know the essential conditions of certain contracts.
Step 4
Some contracts require not a simple written form, but a written notarial form for their conclusion. This is, for example, a lease of real estate for a period of more than one year. Also, in the contract itself, you can establish the need for its notarization.
Step 5
Contracts between individuals must be signed by these persons, and contracts between legal entities are signed by persons entitled to sign and sealed by the legal entity.
