A waiver may be invalid if it violates certain criteria or attempts to waive your rights to recover for intentional torts such as fraud, assault, or battery. Typically you do not surrender your right to sue for injury claims based on reckless or intentional conduct.

A liability waiver form is a legal contract that educates one party about the risks associated with an activity. Once signed, it prevents the participant from opening a lawsuit against the company in the event of damage or loss, effectively shifting responsibility for injuries from the company to the customer.

A release of liability, also known as a liability waiver or a hold harmless agreement, is a contract in which one party agrees not to hold another party liable for damages or injury. These contracts are common in fields that involve some risk to property, finances, or health.

Even if you have signed a liability waiver, it does not absolve the business or other party from liability in cases of gross negligence, intentional harm, or reckless behavior. If the other party's actions fall into these categories, you may still have legal recourse despite signing a waiver.

Under Ontario's Occupiers' Liability Act, occupiers (meaning anyone who has ownership, possession or control of a premise) can obtain and rely on waivers. In order to do so, they must take reasonable steps to bring to your attention that by signing a waiver, you are in fact giving up your legal right to sue them.

Waivers do not make you legally bullet-proof. You can't knowingly endanger somebody and then defend yourself by saying "they signed a waiver." But they do provide you with strong protection against risks inherent in the activity (for example: someone who trips and falls while dancing).
