Contact is a binding document and I signed it unfortunately.

Nope. You cannot sign an illegal contract. The law supercedes.

Any contract that is illegal in any way is generally voidable. It's a standard legal precedent. Specifics can vary from state to state. (Under the theory that a contract is binding only when it meets certain criteria; legality is one of those criteria.)
