What is a month to month?

A month to month is a legal document that establishes rights, obligations, and terms between parties. It puts the terms the parties agreed to in writing. When properly completed and signed, it may form a binding agreement; enforceability depends on your facts, signatures, and applicable law.

What should be included in a month to month?

A comprehensive month to month should include: party identification, clear statement of purpose, detailed terms and conditions, rights and obligations of each party, payment terms (if applicable), termination provisions, default remedies, and governing law.
