“We wrote this book to provide a practical guide for Virginia attorneys to analyze and resolve contract law issues. In addition to its overview of Virginia contract law, contract drafting techniques are discussed and numerous forms are included with comments on their use in Virginia. For both the novice and seasoned practitioner, Contract Law in Virginia also explores in a practical way the resolution of contract disputes through alternative dispute resolution and litigation.”
– John V. Little, editor
Contract Law in Virginia takes the practitioner from contract formation to performance, as well as nonperformance issues. It distinguishes itself from other contract law books by examining how Virginia contract law interacts with other areas of the law. It also applies general legal principles of Virginia contract law to different types of contracts – from commercial contracts to real estate contracts. Special case law rules and statutes are highlighted that affect different types of contracts.
This 2016 edition provides essential updates to Virginia statutory and case law in select areas of contract law through 2015. A number of new decisions add clarity to what constitutes an initial material breach and excuses performance by a party under a contract, and when a liquidated damages provision may be enforced. Additionally, in the area of electronic contracts, more recent cases rely upon traditional contract principles such as notice of terms and assent to establish the enforceability of an electronic contract.
