Hello Kelly. In Florida, the contract may not necessarily be void. However:
- If David misrepresented himself as a representative of the company, it could be an issue.
- If David only co-signed as an individual, he's likely liable too.
Please consult a local attorney for personalized advice.

- If David isn't a representative of the business, his signature in that capacity might not be valid.
