Commentary

In legal contexts, 'goals' typically refer to intended outcomes rather than binding terms; clarity in drafting helps prevent ambiguity about obligations versus objectives.

This glossary is for general informational and educational purposes only. Definitions are jurisdiction-agnostic but reflect terminology and concepts primarily drawn from English and American legal traditions. Nothing herein constitutes legal advice or creates a lawyer-client relationship. Users should consult qualified counsel for advice on specific matters or jurisdictions.
