UNFAIR TERMS
In some situations, completely unreasonable clauses would not be enforced by your local court but would be subject to the unfairness clause. However, one must be careful about which country’s court would deal with potential contractual disputes – it is another point you have to remember to check in the contract. It’s also worth remembering that this may also require heavy legal processes before the unfair nature of the terms is determined – although in the case of an individual translator, it’s often such a small amount of money for big companies that it’s hardly worth going to court. Despite this, you must always read all the suggested contracts carefully, ask questions about unclear points and propose changes as necessary, and use the advisory and legal services offered by translation organizations for example.
