Contractual terms in English law is a topic which deals with four main issues.
- which terms are incorporated into the contract
- how are the terms of the contract to be interpreted
- whether terms are implied into the contract
- what controls are placed on unfair terms
The terms of a contract are the essence of a contract, and tell you what the contract will do. For instance, the price of a good, the time of its promised delivery and the description of the good will all be terms of the contract.
