Is email considered as acceptance of agreement Is email considered as acceptance of agreement

5 years ago

Hi Sir I work for a small firm and we were approached by a big company to tie up with them. The agreement was I was supposed to pay them commission for each lead they offer. The agreement (draft copy) was shared via emails and we were asked to do the franking of the same. Before we could sign the same, we were asked to take up the lead and things went awry. Now the company is threatening to sue me. In one of the emails I had mentioned that I accept and please proceed. Will this be treated as acceptance of agreement eventhough I have not signed it. Please advise. Thanks Cynthia
