An Implied Contract is frequently understood to be a contract of two classes. The first Implied Contract is a contract implied in fact, and the second is a contract implied in law.

An Implied Contract is one not created or evidenced by the exclusive agreement of the parties, but inferred by the law, as a matter of reason and justice from their acts or conduct. The circumstances surrounding the transaction make it reasonable, or even a necessary assumption, that a contract existed between them by tacit understanding.
