A. INTRODUCTION

§ 14.1 General Comments

Many types of agreements and contracts are included in specific chapters of this Florida Legal Forms set. These documents have been drafted to meet the specific requirements of the particular transaction, employment or service undertaking, or other legal situation requiring a contractual agreement.

This chapter summarizes the essentials of good contract drafting that should be utilized in preparing any contractual document.

Restatement, Second, Contracts § 3 (1981) defines an agreement as "a manifestation of mutual assent on the part of two or more persons." The word "agreement" contains no implication that legal consequences are or are not produced.1 Section 1 of the Restatement defines a contract, in part, as "a promise for the breach of which the law gives a remedy." 2 Of course, the words "agreement" and "contract" are often used interchangeably and we will assume that agreements in this chapter are intended to have legal consequences.

§ 14.1

1.Restatement, Second, Contracts § 3a (1981).


2.Uniform Commercial Code § 1–201(3) and (11) (F.S.A. § 672.201) defines "agreement" and "contract" as follows:

(3) "Agreement" means the bargain of the parties in fact as found in their language or by implication from other circumstances including course of dealing or usage of trade or course of performance as provided in this Act (Sections 1–205 and 2–208). Whether an agreement has legal consequences is determined by the provisions of this Act, if applicable; otherwise by the law of contracts (Section 1–103). (Compare "Contract".)

(11) "Contract" means the total legal obligation which results from the parties' agreement as affected by this Act and any other applicable rules of law. (Compare "Agreement".)

The Restatement has many provisions of particular relevance to the contract drafter: 3

3.In addition these Florida Legal Forms volumes set forth checklists to assist the drafter. See, e.g., 12 Legal Forms—Commercial Transactions § 5.1—Form 1, entitled, "Checklist of Terms to Be Included in Contracts for the Sale of Goods."

1. Formation of Contracts—

a. Chapter 2 Parties and Capacity (§§ 9–16).


b. Chapter 3 Mutual Assent (Offer and Acceptance) (§§ 17–70).

c. Chapter 4 Consideration (§§ 71–109).

2. Statute of Frauds—Chapter 5 (§§ 110–150).

See particularly Topic 6 (§§ 131–137) re satisfaction of the statute by a memorandum.

3. Unenforceability on Grounds of Public Policy—Chapter 8 (§§ 178–199).

4. The Scope of Contractual Obligations—Chapter 9 (§§ 200–230).

See particularly Topic 3 (§§ 209–218) re effect of adoption of a writing.

5. Performance and Non–Performance—Chapter 10 (§§ 231–260).

6. Joint and Several Promisors and Promisees—Chapter 13 (§§ 288–301).

7. Contract Beneficiaries—Chapter 14 (§§ 302–315).


8. Assignment and Delegation—Chapter 15 (§§ 316–343).

9. Remedies—Chapter 16 (§§ 344–385).

The ultimate objective of a contract drafter is to draft with conciseness, clarity and coverage of all of the contract subject matter which should be agreed upon by the parties. Several helpful publications discuss legal drafting and writing.4

4.See the following:

R. Dickerson, Materials on Legal Drafting (1981).

C. Felsenfeld & A. Siegel, Writing Contracts in Plain English (1981).

G. Gopen, Writing from a Legal Perspective (1981).

D. Mellinkoff, Legal Writing: Sense and Nonsense (1982).

L. Squires & M. Rombauer, Legal Writing in a Nutshell (1982).

H. Weihofen, Legal Writing Style (2d ed. 1980).


Some contracts lend themselves naturally to drafting in three separate heads, viz., covenants of the First Party, covenants of the Second Party, and mutual covenants.5 However, this basic form does not readily lend itself to the drafting of some types of contracts in that in some cases it is more desirable and saves much verbiage to deal with separate subjects individually and state the rights and duties of both parties with reference thereto.6

5.See text accompanying note 9 below.

6.See text accompanying note 7 below.

Below there are set forth two forms which illustrate basic outlines for the drafting of contracts:

1. An illustration of an outline form of contract is the following:

This agreement, entered into this _______ day of _______, 19__, between _______ of _______, Florida, [ First Party ], and _______, of _______, Florida, [ Second Party ], wherein it is agreed as follows:

1. [ Here in numbered paragraphs set out the agreement. ] 7

7.It is desirable to have all paragraphs of the contract numbered in order that they may be referred to readily. No paragraph should deal

Sample from Florida Legal Forms, Volume 9, Specialized FormsCopyright 1990, 2019 James W. Martin, Esq. All rights reserved.Provided for background information only, not legal advice.www.jamesmartinpa.comwith more than one subject. Sections should be logically divided and captioned. For longer contracts a table of contents or index is desirable.

This contract shall be binding upon the parties, their executors, administrators, heirs, and assigns.

In Witness Whereof, the parties have hereto affixed their signatures the day and year first above written.8

8.Outmoded legalisms such as "witnesseth" are ordinarily to be avoided. The drafter may wish to consider the following:

Dated this _______ day of _______, 19__.

[ or ]

Read, considered and signed at _______ this _______ day of _______, 19__.

Witness:

________________________ ______________________________________

Sample from Florida Legal Forms, Volume 9, Specialized FormsCopyright 1990, 2019 James W. Martin, Esq. All rights reserved.Provided for background information only, not legal advice.www.jamesmartinpa.com[ First Party ]

Witness:

________________________ ______________________________________

[ Second Party ]

The use of "Vendor" and "Purchaser", "Seller" and "Buyer", and like words, in lieu of "First Party" and "Second Party" is recommended in that it keeps the respective positions constantly before the drafter or reader and is less likely to invite error.

2. An outline form of contract with a preamble is illustrated:

This Agreement, entered into this _______ day of _______, 19__, by and between _______, of _______, Florida, [ First Party ], and _______, of _______, Florida, [ Second Party ]:

Whereas, etc.; and

Whereas, etc.


Now, Therefore, in consideration of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, it is mutually agreed as follows: 9

9.R. Henson, Secured Transactions Under the Uniform Commercial Code 395–96 (2d ed. 1979) comments:

Where background recitals detailing the origin of the transaction are thought to be helpful, and occasionally they do serve a purpose, it is sufficient to say, "This transaction is based on these facts," and the facts may then be given in order; it is not necessary to preface each one with "Whereas," nor to end the recitals and begin the body of the agreement with "Now, therefore, this indenture witnesseth *** ".

1. [ First Party ] shall:

2. [ Second Party ] shall:

This agreement shall be binding upon the parties, their executors, administrators, heirs, and assigns.

A preamble to a contract is unnecessary in most cases and ordinarily should be avoided. In some instances it may be desirable to have a short

Sample from Florida Legal Forms, Volume 9, Specialized FormsCopyright 1990, 2019 James W. Martin, Esq. All rights reserved.Provided for background information only, not legal advice.www.jamesmartinpa.compreamble setting forth the relationship of the parties and the reason for entering into the agreement. Except in a rare case, the preamble never should be long nor attempt to cover all of the background of the contract. The writer should be able to draft his contract intelligibly without the use of long preambles. Long preambles have been criticized both by competent drafters and the courts, and are a potential source of trouble. Recitals in a preamble do not constitute the agreement, and while they may help explain the agreement, they do not take the place of the agreement nor control over the agreement.

§ 14.2 Plain English or Plain Language Agreements

There has been a movement in recent years to draft agreements with consumers in plain English. Such agreements may be seen as a marketing opportunity. In the words of a bank official: "Having consumer contracts in plain English is not only good for our customers, it's good for our business. People are more likely to use something they can understand fully." 1

Dealer and Customer hereby agree that the following terms, provisions and conditions shall apply to all goods sold by Dealer to Customer, and that all goods are sold by Dealer to Customer upon the following terms, provisions and conditions:

1. Payment for goods purchased is due upon delivery of the goods to Customer, unless otherwise stated in an invoice for the goods purchased. As used in this Agreement, "delivery" includes, but is not limited to, actual delivery to Customer, or an order by Dealer to the warehouse where the goods are stored. All payments shall be made to Dealer at its office in _______, Florida. The place of sale of all goods is _______, Florida; provided however, that if Dealer sells goods to Customer during a closed season which prohibits the sale of the goods in the State of Florida, then Dealer and Customer shall arrange for such sales to be made in compliance with Florida law with a place of sale outside the State of Florida.

2. Customer shall be conclusively deemed to have accepted and agreed to any invoice from Dealer (including but not limited to the price, quantity, quality, and grade of the goods as stated on the invoice and any and all terms, provisions, conditions, agreements, representations and warranties on such invoices), unless Dealer receives written objection to such invoice from Customer within ten (10) days after the date the invoice is sent to Customer.

3. If Dealer does not receive written notice from Customer rejecting or revoking acceptance to any goods within five (5) days after delivery of

Sample from Florida Legal Forms, Volume 9, Specialized FormsCopyright 1990, 2019 James W. Martin, Esq. All rights reserved.Provided for background information only, not legal advice.www.jamesmartinpa.comthe goods to Customer, then Customer shall have waived any right to reject the goods or to revoke acceptance of the goods. In no event may Customer setoff payment for any rejected goods against payment due on goods accepted.

4. If payment is not made when due, or if Customer otherwise violates this Agreement, Customer shall pay Dealer a late charge at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum on the amount due, plus Dealer's reasonable attorneys fees for collection (including appeals), plus other costs of collection (including but not limited to long distance, copies, postage, filing fees, storage, and other expenses of collection). Venue for any litigation between the parties may be in _______ County, Florida. This Agreement, and all sales between the parties, shall be construed under Florida law.

5. In consideration of Dealer selling Customer goods from time to time, and for other good and valuable consideration, Customer hereby grants to Dealer a continuing lien and security interest in the following as security for the payment to Dealer of the purchase price and other amounts due from Customer to Dealer from time to time: all goods purchased from Dealer by Customer; all inventory of Customer now owned or hereafter acquired from Seller; all proceeds of the foregoing; and all accounts resulting from the foregoing. This lien shall constitute a continuing purchase money security interest in Customer's inventory. Dealer may file a photocopy of this Customer Agreement as a financing statement. Customer agrees not to commingle the collateral with other assets of Customer; Customer agrees to keep the collateral separate and identifiable. Customer also agrees to keep all proceeds of the collateral separate and identifiable; Customer agrees not to commingle the proceeds of collateral with other assets of Customer until Dealer is paid in full for that collateral. This security interest shall be construed under

Sample from Florida Legal Forms, Volume 9, Specialized FormsCopyright 1990, 2019 James W. Martin, Esq. All rights reserved.Provided for background information only, not legal advice.www.jamesmartinpa.comthe Florida Uniform Commercial Code. This security interest shall continue for as long as Customer buys any goods from Dealer.

6. Dealer may from time to time sell Customer goods which are restricted under Florida law. For example, Dealer might sell Customer lobster during the closed season for resale outside the State of Florida. Customer hereby represents, warrants and agrees that it will not sell in the State of Florida any lobster which Dealer sells to Customer during the closed season. In all cases, Customer agrees to abide by and comply with all laws restricting the sale, disposition or other use of goods sold by Dealer to Customer. It shall be solely Customer's responsibility to assure that such goods are reported to the State of Florida, if so required, and that such goods are stored, resold, and used in compliance with Florida law so as to avoid seizure or other action by the State.

7. The person signing this Agreement on behalf of Customer hereby represents and warrants that he or she is authorized to sign this Agreement on behalf of Customer and hereby personally guarantees the performance of this Agreement and payment by Customer. The parent company, if any, of Customer also guarantees performance of this Agreement and payment by Customer. The undersigned and the Customer hereby warrant that the information given above is true and correct in all respects. Customer hereby authorizes and directs the above-listed references to furnish Dealer with such information as Dealer requests from time to time concerning Customer.

8. Customer hereby certifies that all goods purchased from Dealer after the date of this Customer Agreement are purchased for resale so that there is no sales tax due upon sales from Dealer to Customer. This certificate shall continue in force until revoked by written notice from

Sample from Florida Legal Forms, Volume 9, Specialized FormsCopyright 1990, 2019 James W. Martin, Esq. All rights reserved.Provided for background information only, not legal advice.www.jamesmartinpa.comCustomer to Dealer and to the Florida Department of Revenue. Customer hereby warrants that its sales tax dealer's certificate of registration number shown above is correct. If Customer is not a resident of Florida and does not have a Florida dealer's sales tax number, Customer warrants that all goods purchased from Dealer will be transported outside Florida by Customer for resale and for no other purpose.

9. Customer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Dealer harmless of and from any and all claims, demands, liability, losses, expenses, attorneys fees, and other obligations incurred by Dealer which arise out of Customer's acts or omissions with respect to any goods sold by Dealer to Customer or with respect to any other matter or transaction between the parties, or which arise out of Customer's violation or alleged violation of any law.
