Higher Standard Clause Samples

The Higher Standard clause establishes that if multiple standards of performance or care are referenced in a contract, the party must always meet the most stringent one. For example, if a contract requires compliance with both industry best practices and all applicable laws, the party must adhere to whichever requirement is more demanding in any given situation. This clause ensures that the highest level of responsibility is maintained, reducing ambiguity and minimizing the risk of subpar performance.
