Abstract

The subject matter Legal regulation of offer and acceptance in law of obligations is topical in connection with the importance of these legal institutes in conclusion of contracts. The goal of the article was to analyse legal regulation of an offer and acceptance in the law of obligations and to show their main legal aspects. The offer and acceptance, or the offer to conclude a contract and acceptance of that offer, is an essential part of any civil obligation. Understanding of offer and acceptance in law of obligations is a debatable theoretical and practical legal issue. An ambiguous understanding of these legal institutes in legal practice may lead to disputes over validity of a contract or a separate part of a contract. The author, researching legal regulation of offer and acceptance in the law of obligations, provides an explanation on their main legal aspects.
