In law, one word can bulldoze an entire paragraph.
"Notwithstanding."
It means: everything you just read? This overrides it.
"Notwithstanding Section 4, the Seller may terminate this agreement..."
One word. Total power. That's why lawyers love it — and why you need to respect it when you see it coming.
In law, the language IS the law.
