Answer

I agree with the trail court’s ruling because Lambertdidn’t make a clear offer, he and Barrondidn’t negotiate the terms of the offer and Barron never orally accepted his offer for consulting services under the proposed one-year arrangement with $3100 per month. (Mallor, at p. 319) A basic element of a contract was missing in this case; base on a voluntary agreement, an offer and an acceptance of that offer must be made. (Mallor, et al., at p. 318) Since the acceptancewasn’t made, there is no contract. In addition, I don’t believe that Barron had the mental capacity to accept an offer according to Lambert’s statement. Lambert stated that due to Barron’s personal problems and financial difficulties, he was concerned about his friend’s depressed mental state. (Mallor, et al., at p. 319) Another basic element of a contract is that the person must have legal capacity to contract. (Mallor, et al., at p. 318) Furthermore, due to both parties friendship prior to the unclear offer made by Lambert, it could be presumed that the advice was given freely between friends. (Mallor, et al., at p. 319) Therefore, I also agree with the court ruling that ultimately their relationship was that of a friend helping a friend. (Mallor, et al., at p. 320) Finally, Lambert did not have a case because he could not prove that he had abilateral contractwhich states that both parties must exchange promises. (Mallor, et al., at p. 320) Nor did he have anexpressed contractwhere both parties stated the terms of the oral contract. (Mallor, et al., at p. 321)
