About Sabrina Hashim & Co
What is a Contract?
Preventing disputes and unjust trade.
A contract is an agreement between two or more parties that is legally binding. Essentially, a contract outlines what the parties have agreed to do or trade.
While a contract can be written or spoken, most business circumstances necessitate a written contract signed by all parties involved in order to be legally binding. Parties can perform a contract negotiation to ensure a win-win situation for all.
Elements of a valid contract:
- A valid offer
- Acceptance
- Consideration
- Intention to create legal relations
- Capacity to contract
When is a Contract Considered Illegal and Void?
- If there is no consideration
- If the consideration and object of an agreement are forbidden by a law
- If the consideration and object of an agreement are fraudulent or involve or imply injury to the person or property of another
- Contracts which are immoral or against public policy
- Contracts in restraint of marriage
- Contracts in restraint of trade
- Contracts to oust the jurisdiction of the courts
- Contracts with no certainty
- Contracts by way of wager

Frequently Asked Questions

Contract negotiations in Malaysia take place in four stages:
- Preparation
Preparation starts with researching information, analysing data and leverage, and identifying the interests and position of the other party.
- Exchange of Information
In this stage, you should share your information with the other party, including your business’s interests and objectives. The more information you share, the easier it will be for the other party to understand what you are looking for.
- Bargaining
Bargaining is where the ‘give-and-take’ happens. You’ll need to compromise in order to satisfy both parties’ interests, thus building a lasting relationship and a profitable outcome.
Moreover, if the other party takes an entirely different stance about what they want, you’ll have to be creative and come up with alternatives for what to include in the contract.
- Closing
After you have compromised on all the necessary items to be included in the contract, you can end negotiations by restating what was discussed in the prior stages.
Once both parties have come to an official agreement, you or a contract lawyer can begin drafting the actual contract.
