Chronicle: Ana Carolina Silva | Signing without reading: can a contract be annulled due to lack of knowledge of its clauses?

This chronicle by Ana Carolina Silva addresses the legal question of whether simply signing a contract without reading it beforehand can constitute grounds for its annulment. The article clarifies that, when signing a contract, the person declares acceptance of its content, and cannot later claim ignorance of the clauses as a reason to invalidate the agreement, except in specific situations of defects in consent or abusive clauses. The signature should not be viewed as an empty formality, but as an act of conscious acceptance of the contractual conditions.
