Are You Bound by a Contract If the Info Is Wrong?
You signed a contract. But later, you realize some of the info in it was wrong. Can you still be legally bound?
This episode breaks down a real $25,000 mistake—and what it teaches about signing contracts without double-checking the details.
Why “I Didn’t Know” Doesn’t Work in Law
There’s a legal principle called “ignorance is not a defense.”
If you sign something—even if the information inside is wrong—you’re likely still bound by it.
One of Cory’s clients signed a commercial lease stating the property was 1,100 sq ft.
Three years later, she discovered the space was only 800 sq ft.
That mistake cost her over $25,000 in rent overpayment—and there was nothing she could do to recover it.
Why This Matters for Wellness Entrepreneurs
Whether it’s a lease, a partnership agreement, or a contractor agreement, the fine print matters.
