You are probably right. But then the question is: why do they write it into the contract from the beginning.
One reason might be to have the non-legal but moral upperhand: "Hey, don't be angry - you agreed to these conditions when you signed the contract."
Even if they don't matter in court, I think asking to strike these parts is still good idea. And be it just to see how they react to your suggestion.
- codingdave 6y agoThe reason stuff like that ends up in contracts is because attorneys know that most people are afraid of legal conflict, and they can get people to cave in to demands just to avoid a lawsuit. It is typical to put clauses into standard contracts that would never hold up in court, but that people will follow anyway out of fear. I believe that everyone in the corporate world, or even wider, should go through a "Law 101" course just to learn the basics of contract law and how our legal system works, so people can recognize such behaviors.
