TITLE II - CONTRACTS (Arts. 1305-1422) Chapter 1 - General Provisions

This document discusses the classification and elements of contracts under Philippine law. It defines a contract as a meeting of minds between two or more parties where one party binds themselves to give something or render a service to the other. For a contract to be valid and enforceable, it must be lawful and contain all necessary requisites. Contracts can be classified according to their form, perfection, cause, risk, liability, status, dependence on other contracts, and divisibility of parts. Valid contracts that meet all legal requirements are legally binding and enforceable. However, some agreements that meet the criteria of a valid contract may still be unenforceable if they fail to comply with statutes like the Statute of Frauds.
