    Agency  is an area of commercial law dealing with a contractual  or
    quasi-contractual tripartite, or non-contractual set of relationships
    when an agent  is authorized to act on behalf of another (called the
    Principal) to create a legal relationship with a Third Party.[1]
    Succinctly, it may be referred to as the relationship between a
    principal and an agent whereby the principal, expressly or impliedly,
    authorizes the agent to work under his control and on his behalf. The
    agent is, thus, required to negotiate on behalf of the principal or
    bring him and third parties into contractual relationship. This branch
    of law separates and regulates the relationships between:
         * Agents and Principals;
         * Agents and the Third Parties with whom they deal on their
    Principals' behalf; and
         * Principals and the Third Parties when the Agents purport to deal
on their behalf.

    For a technical legal deconstruction see the American Law Institutes'
    "Restatement of the Law (Third), Agency".
