You realize that contracts don't override the law, right?
Surely you can’t stipulate just anything in a contract and have that upheld as binding by a court, even in the US?
You can't make a contract that violates the law. Come on.
I've read that those may be illegal or unenforceable according to the law. Check your jurisdiction.
The contract may state itIt's unenforceable, according to everyone I've interacted with in the state :)
isn't such a contracting completely unenforceable in the US? I can't sign a contract with a private party that says I won't consult a lawyer for legal advice for example.
You seem be under the delusional understanding that a contract, if agreed to, must be legal and enforceable.
If you can't enforce a contract it's not a contract.
Why it wouldn't be legal? It was in the contract.
Yes, but that's not a law; it's a contract term that is probably valid in most of the world.
