In MSCD 2.3 I recommend that you not use a title that looks at one transaction from different perspectives, as in agreement of purchase and sale. I’m thinking that the same approach applies when one party engages another to provide services.
In other words, if I say “Acme hereby engages the Consult to perform those services specified in …,” I don’t need to add “and the Consultant hereby accepts that engagement.” Instead, it’s sufficient that it’s stated somewhere that the Consultant is obligated to perform those services.
Any thoughts?
