I think you might be deluding yourselves. If you enter into any form of contract it is your responsibility to understand what the terms are before you sign to enable the proposal to become a contract.

Certain types of contract can, depending upon the representation that was given at the time of entering into the contract, possibly be deemed to be unfair for different reasons, however you might need to convince a Judge that was indeed the case. In establishing such a case, your argued merits would have to be based on established law or likely to set a new precedent. In either case it would normally be a very long shot and almost certainly a very expensive one.

Best advice is to read and understand the terms of what you are proposing to enter into before contracting. If in any doubt seek proper legal advice before signing rather than after. The purpose of a bond or indeed any contract is to ensure that it is legally enforcable in the event of default of one or ( not necessarily and ) the other party.
