Abstract

The reform of Russian civil legislation, which began in 2008, has not yet affected the special part of the Civil Code on certain types of contracts, and remains incomplete. At the same time, one of the most problematic contracts is the paid services agreement, the regulation of which in the Code is too broad and fragmentary. In the context of the growing role of the service sector in modern economic turnover, such a state of legal regulation of the paid services agreement in domestic civil law is inadmissible. The choice of directions for improving the legislative regulation of a service agreement should be based on an analysis of the legal nature of this agreement and the features of its theoretical design. The purpose of the article is to identify the main shortcomings of the legal regulation of the paid services agreement and to determine areas for its improvement. The methods of research are general methods of study (analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, system analysis) and methods of legal science (methods of literal, systematic, teleological and historical interpretation of legal norms). The issues of the theoretical construction of a paid services agreement are considered taking into account the dogmatic development of this issue in domestic civil law and the current state of legal regulation of this contract in the current legislation. It is concluded that the service agreement is always aimed at achieving a certain result in the form of providing services of appropriate quality. The need to improve the general provisions of the service agreement is argued and specific directions for its modernization are proposed. The services requiring additional regulation are defined in special paragraphs of the Civil Code on certain types of service contracts.
