WHAT IF I SIGNED A CONTRACT WITHOUT READING IT

Dear Lawyer,

What if I signed a contract without reading it?

Do you mean I will be bound by the terms of the contract?

Sincerely I wish you could escape from the terms and obligations of the contract since you did not read it before appending your signature.

However, when a document containing contractual terms is signed, then, in the absence of fraud or misrepresentation, the party signing it is bound by the terms of the agreement signed regardless of whether he has read or understood it or otherwise.

To avoid being burnt, always get a lawyer to review your contract.
