SELF-SERVING CONTRACT Clause Samples

A self-serving contract clause is designed to benefit one party, often by granting them unilateral rights or advantages within the agreement. For example, such a clause might allow one party to interpret ambiguous terms in their own favor or to impose obligations on the other party without reciprocal duties. The core function of this clause is to shift the balance of power in the contract, typically protecting the interests of the drafting party and potentially creating an unfair or one-sided arrangement.
