Swedish term or phrase:
göra en rättshandling gällande
English translation:
enforce a legal contract
Swedish term
göra en rättshandling gällande
This seems to be to "enforce a contract"...but wondering if there is some other prefered wording out there, "perform a legal transaction", or "to assert the validity of a legal act"?

legal act ... is not enforceable
enforce a legal transaction or dealing
med vetskap om dem åberopa rättshandlingen och den gentemot vilken rättshandlingen *företogs* - IMO taking the term out of the realms of a physical deed or doc. (with *notice* / knowledge of those relying on the legal dealing or transaction and in relation to whom / vis-à-vis whom the legal dealing or transaction had been conducted).
åberopa overlapping in part with göra...gällande: invoke, assert, claim, enforce, maintain, establish, *plead / aver*, bring forward (as evidence), etc. etc. Gullberg. Averment in civil procedure is an allegation or assertion. Otherwise, 'set up' a legal defenc/se.
rättshandling = legal act (*transaction*), 'act involving legal consequences'; court proceeding/s or procedure, Gullberg.
Note that the dictionary-undriven term of legal dealing in English often covers a multitude of 'sins', to wit: bank operations and transactrions.
