unilateral contract

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I wrote and signed a statement where I took some obligations:

1. I promise to do XYZ for John Smith.
2. I promise to do ABC for John Brown.

There is no particular sum of money, no "if" terms, no obligations from Mr Smith and Brown. Can Mr Smith and Mr Brown sue me and win if I won't do anything for them?
Thanks

1st year contracts class?

No sir. Just a guy with a question for the forum experts.

if you look up the essentials of a contract, you will see what you have is not a contract. For a contract to be valid and binding, there must be

offer

acceptance

consideration

intent

legality

as such, John Smith and John Brown do not have a contract with you and generally would have nothing to sue you for. There are a few situations where they might be able to but based on what you have given, no, they have no claim.
