So, basically, my brother n law signed a very suspect and immoral farm lease from my grandmother, on her death bed, (20yr).

I agreed to work with a personal trainer, who sent me a form and told me to sign it while on call, within minutes. It was $500/month with a 3 month commitment. I misunderstood her explanation to mean I could pay 500/month and cancel anytime. After 3 weeks with her, I've realized that her... Read more »

The solar contractor has since gone out of business and has filed bankruptcy.

I signed a quote but the company didn’t. It has a place for signatures and initials on another page for a discount price. I didn’t sign or initial that because I chose not to do that part of the deal. Can they hold me to that part too?

It may be. The question is whether there was a meeting of the minds on the essential terms of the contract.
A signature is evidence that there was a meeting of the minds and can be dispositive. The lack of a signature is evidence that there wasn't, but isn't necessarily... Read more »
