Wikipedia

  1. counteroffer

    Offer and acceptance are generally recognised as essential requirements for the formation of a contract, and analysis of their operation is a traditional approach in contract law. The offer and acceptance formula, developed in the 19th century, identifies a moment of formation when the parties are of one mind. This classical approach to contract formation has been modified by developments in the law of estoppel, misleading conduct, misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and power of acceptance.

  1. counteroffer

    A counteroffer is a proposal presented in response to an initial offer, suggesting different terms and conditions. It is a common aspect in negotiations, especially in areas such as real estate and business deals. Accepting a counteroffer typically leads to an agreement or contract. However, it also effectively rejects the initial offer, and the original proposer is not obligated to accept the counteroffer.
