Unconscionable contracts are so one-sided and unfair they are often ruled by the courts as unenforceable as a matter of law

A contract is considered unconscionable when it is so unfair and one-sided that no reasonable person would have entered it unless that person was pressured, threatened, acting under duress, or otherwise defrauded into signing the agreement.

Should you believe that the written contract you entered is one-sided, overreaching, or unfair, it is best to have the contract reviewed by a Consumer Attorney to determine your available legal options.
