I know this is a humorous thread, but here's a semi-serious response anyway:
That contract would probably be voided by a judge based on the following legal principles:
Unconscionability--procedural and substantive
Void due to Public Policy reasons
If you can't use the substantive law above, try a JURISDICTION defense
(NOTE: If the Devil loses on substantive grounds, he can always amend his complaint for breach of contract into a PROMISSORY ESTOPPEL action--ie., he detrimentally relied on your promise to give him your soul)
If you live on earth and the Devil is trying to enforce the contract in Hell, unless there's a reciprocity treaty between Hell and earth, the Devil can't file an action against you in hell cuz hell doesn't have personal jurisdiction over you.
Of course, like any lawsuit, you can also attack based on EVIDENCE (or lack thereof). Were there any witnesses? Was there forgery involved? Are the documents authenticated?
You can also ask for a summary judgment by claiming there's not enough facts to sustain the cause of action (lawsuit).
