Acceptance. Altisource Portfolio Solutions, Inc., is a global corporation that provides real property owners with services, such as property preservation—repairs, debris removal, and so on. Lucas Contracting, Inc., is a small trade contractor in Carrollton, Ohio. On behalf of Altisource, Berghorst Enterprises, LLC, hired Lucas to perform preservation work on certain foreclosed properties in eastern Ohio. When Berghorst did not pay for the work, Lucas filed a suit in an Ohio state court against Altisource. Before the trial, Lucas e-mailed the terms of a settlement. The same day, Altisource e-mailed a response that did not challenge or contradict Lucas’s proposal and indicated agreement to it. Two days later, however, Altisource forwarded a settlement document that contained additional terms. Which proposal most likely satisfies the element of agreement to establish a contract? Explain.

The very first e-mailed submission from Altisource that doesn't even dispute Lucas' suggestion would have been the proposal which most definitely meets the part of the arrangement to create a contract. It is when Altisource's e-mail was approved that they committed to it. Today, if a new arrangement with added provisions is presented two days after ratification, it can not be accepted as an aspect of the binding agreement.
If they could have some trouble with the arrangement, they could've just discussed the based distribution and therefore not approved the agreement. It would never be altered until they have approved it but the same could be known as either a contract arrangement.
