Oral agreements are binding negotiations made by spoken word rather than in writing. In England, a solicitor in this area helps clients identify when an agreement was formed, what terms were agreed, and whether those terms are legally enforceable, including issues of misrepresentation, terms incorporated by reference, and the existence of a written contract that may override or embody the oral bargain. A solicitor drafts or reviews any subsequent writing to reflect the deal, advises on remedies for breach, and guides steps to prove the contract’s terms in disputes. Where disputes arise, they may involve negotiation, mediation, or litigation in England’s courts.
Oral contracts rely on the parties’ words, but enforcement often hinges on evidence of formation, terms, and intention. The solicitor assesses the risk of unenforceability, gathers witness statements, and checks for implied terms or misrepresentation; they may advise on remedies such as damages or specific performance and prepare or review any written record to support or clarify the agreement.

We have partnered with Forbes for many years for employment law support. This was the first time I have worked with Sheroze Nadeem and Katie Lee. We required support with a third party contract dispute and I cannot fault the service we received. Calls or emails were returned quickly and advice was provided in an easy to understand format and we received a lot of support during the dispute. They negotiated for us and the outcome was more in our favour than it would have been without their support. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the team.
