LESION IN CONTRACTS BETWEEN PROFESSIONALS
LESION IN CONTRACTS BETWEEN PROFESSIONALS

Summary/Abstract: The current study aims to bring to the foreground a practical perception of lesion, both as a vice of consent and as a mechanism for balancing a contract, by putting this institution in the context of modern economic reality. Section I offers a short historical analysis of lesion in Romanian law, presenting the innovation brought by the Civil Code in force and the applicability of lesion in professional relationships. Section II aims to explain the particularities of this vice of consent regarded as a contractual imbalance. Section III offers an analysis of the conditions of existence of lesion, by contextualizing them in relations between professionals. Section IV introduces an analysis of the way in which the institution of lesion, when correctly put into practice by the interpreter of the law, could influence business actors when making decisions in the phase of concluding the contract. Section V refers to the application of lesion by courts and to the effects produced by this institution.
