Which of the following statements about advertisements in legal terms is correct?

Price quotations can indeed be considered offers if they are made in response to specific inquiries. This is grounded in contract law, where an offer is made when there is a clear intent to be bound by specific terms upon acceptance. If a potential client requests a quote for a specific legal service, and the attorney provides a precise price for that service, this can be interpreted as a binding offer, contingent upon acceptance by the client.

In many cases, general advertisements are seen as invitations to treat rather than binding offers. This means they invite potential clients to inquire further or negotiate terms but do not constitute an immediate offer that can be accepted to form a contract. Therefore, when responding directly to a request, a price quote can step into the role of an offer, particularly if it includes all necessary terms and is intended to elicit acceptance.

This contrasts with the idea that advertisements are universally binding offers, require detailed terms to be offers, or are excluded from negotiations altogether, which do not reflect the nuances of how offers operate in the context of advertisements and communications in the legal field.
