Re: Misrepresenting Age on Contract

By law the requirements for a binding contract are as follows: must be over the age of 18, of sound mind and have something of value in which to base the contract. So if you were under age and entered into a contract it is not legally binding, but they still might go after you or your parents to honor the contract. If you have any questions please feel free to contact my office at 888-563-8529
