Qualified Acceptance

A qualified acceptance is an acceptance that is not absolute. Instead of simply agreeing to the offer, the offeree introduces conditions or proposes modifications to the terms of the offer.

  • A qualified acceptance functions as a counter-offer.
  • It serves as a rejection of the original offer.
  • Consequently, it means there is no meeting of the minds regarding the original offer.
