About Document Legal Information

A legal document is one that describes an agreement between two or more parties and has been signed by both parties with the agreement and is, in all other respects, enforceable in court. Contracts and other legal instruments are mutual commitments made by two or more parties. They are included in many kinds of documents, including company agreements, employment contracts, home leases, and settlement agreements.

Why is Document Legal Information important?
