What is typically required for a contract to be considered valid?

A verbal agreement alone
Mutual assent of the parties involved
Involvement of a third party
No need for signatures

The correct answer is: Mutual assent of the parties involved

For a contract to be considered valid, mutual assent of the parties involved is essential. This means that all parties must agree to the terms of the contract, demonstrating a clear understanding and intention to enter into the agreement. This concept is often manifested through the offer and acceptance process, where one party makes an offer, and the other party accepts it. The mutual agreement ensures that both parties are on the same page regarding their rights and obligations under the contract. Other elements may also be necessary for a contract's validity, such as consideration, legal capacity, and legality of purpose. However, the fundamental aspect of mutual assent distinguishes a valid contract from mere negotiations or discussions where the parties have not yet reached an agreement.
