The New York Section 32 Settlement Agreement Claimant Release is a legal document that is used when settling a dispute between a claimant and a defendant, usually in a civil lawsuit. The Release is a contract between the Claimant and the Defendant, in which the Claimant agrees to settle their claim in exchange for a payment from the Defendant. The Release outlines the details of the settlement agreement, including any money or other compensation the Claimant may receive, and any conditions or limitations on their ability to make further claims against the Defendant. There are two types of New York Section 32 Settlement Agreement Claimant Release: a Full Release and a Partial Release. A Full Release is a release of all claims that the Claimant may have against the Defendant, while a Partial Release is a release of only some claims the Claimant may have against the Defendant.
