About this document

Civil Law vs. English Law on Contracts by Cemre Blackstone is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Unlike English common law, civil law jurisdictions do not require consideration to enforce a contract. Instead, civil law only requires the intention of the parties to create a legally binding obligation, without needing consideration. Civil law countries evaluate the intention of the parties, rather than consideration, when determining if an agreement constitutes an enforceable contract.
