And it's not just about being able to read and understand. It's power dynamics. How often are you in a position to negotiate the boilerplate contract that gets put in front of you when you're doing most normal stuff. It's "sign here and here and here, etc", not "read this over and come back with your edits". I negotiate contracts as part of my job, and we go back and forth and make sure parties agreed and understand. As someone else pointed out, such contracts almost certainly should be enforceable, even with unusual terms, because they were expressly co-written and agreed to. An uneditable document drafted by and in favor of one party is not the same thing at all, regardless of the signer's capacity to understand |
