Agent Agreement

Progress:

Should this document be binding on a party as soon as that party has signed it, even if the other party hasn't signed yet (a deed), or should it only be binding on a party once the other party has done something to "buy" the promise, for example by paying a deposit, or by starting to perform the work they agreed to do (a contract)? Please note that there are strict signing requirements, particularly for deeds, and if these requirements are not met then a deed may not be legally binding. In addition, if the parties want the agent to have the power to sign on behalf of the principal, they may be required by law to grant that power by deed.

Deed

Contract

Select whether this document will be a deed or a contract. The differences between deeds and contracts are explained below. Many agency relationships are created by deed, because the parties want the agent to have the power to sign on behalf of the principal to make contracts or to execute other documents under seal, and in order to do this, the parties may be required by law to grant that power by deed. There are stricter signing requirements for deeds than for contracts though. If a deed is not signed in accordance with these strict signing requirements, then the deed may not be legally binding. These signing requirements are often set out in the laws of the various states and territories. If the parties have any doubts about these signing requirements, then they should seek legal advice. For a valid contract to exist, there needs to be an offer and acceptance, an intention to be legally bound, and consideration (ie one thing must be given by the first party, in order for the other party to be required to give something in return). Any ordinary contract is structured like this. Consideration may be in the form of a deposit, or in the form of a party starting to perform their obligations under the contract. For example, let's say that Andrea and Ben signed a contract requiring Ben to paint Andrea's house. Perhaps the contract requires Andrea to pay 2 progress payments along the way. If Ben went ahead and started painting the house, then once he reaches the first milestone, Andrea would be required to pay. The requirement for consideration may be satisfied by Ben having started the painting, meaning that the contract becomes binding. And once Ben reaches the second milestone, Andrea would be required to make the second payment. However, if Ben never started painting the house, he may not be able to compel Andrea to pay, because no consideration has been provided. He has not given anything in return yet. Alternatively, if Andrea and Ben signed a valid deed, requiring Ben to paint Andrea's house, and requiring Andrea to pay Ben, then this may be binding on the parties regardless of whether they had performed their part of the deal. For example, Ben may be able to compel Andrea to pay, even though Ben had not performed any of the painting yet. A deed is different, as it does not require consideration. Instead, if the document is properly signed as a deed then it is binding on the party that signed it, as soon as it has been signed - even if there is no consideration, and even if the second party has not signed it yet. This is because a deed is considered to be a solemn indication to the community that the person signing the deed intends to uphold the promise they have made in the deed. As mentioned above though, if a principal wants to give the agent the power to sign contracts and deeds on behalf of the principal, then a deed may need to be used to grant this power. This is because some principals find that the laws in their relevant jurisdiction require these powers to be provided by deed. There are certain formal requirements that need to be met in order for a contract or a deed to be validly signed. Either document will need to be signed in accordance with those formal requirements, or it may not be legally binding. The rules regarding the signing of contracts or deeds by companies are set out in the Corporations Act 2001, and generally require the contract or deed to be signed by two directors, or by a director and the secretary or in the event that the company has a sole director who is also the secretary, by that person. In addition, the laws of the various states and territories may set out signing requirements, particularly in relation to deeds. If the parties do not use the correct form of document, and do not sign it in accordance with the relevant legal requirements, then there is a risk that the document will not be legally binding. This would mean the agent is not actually authorised to do the things that the principal wants the agent to do for them, and this could create significant legal problems. Therefore if the parties are in any doubt, they should seek legal advice. Select whether this document will be a deed or a contract.
