FAQ
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.
In California, waivers of liability are generally enforceable so long as they have been drafted correctly, are explicit as to the scope of coverage, are legible and use high-visibility text, and do not illegally waive unknown or unrelated claims.
A waiver, once signed, is a valid contract. However, in the state of Ohio, you cannot waive away a person's rights from unforeseeable negligence. By signing, you are saying that you understand the risk and are agreeing to go forward with the activity anyway.
Under California law, waivers of liability may not prevent people from suing for injuries resulting from gross negligence, recklessness, intentional torts or illegal acts.
You might think that since you signed a waiver acknowledging the risks of the activity, you have no legal leg to stand on to file a personal injury lawsuit. Waivers can make personal injury lawsuits more complex, but you can still seek damages for injuries that could have and should have been prevented.
As a general rule, those guilty of fraud, negligence, or delay in the performance of their obligations and those who in any manner contravene the tenor thereof are liable for damages. As to fraud, the rule is clear: Any waiver of an action for future fraud is void.
A waiver is an exculpatory contract. That means it's used to excuse a party from responsibility when the other contracted party is injured by either known or unknown risks in a particular activity. This includes inherent risks and ordinary negligence.
Liability waivers are enforceable in California solely to the extent they shift to the customer the risk of ordinary negligence. Under California law, a liability waiver cannot excuse an injury caused by a defendant's gross negligence, recklessness or intentionally wrongful act.
No waiver for intentional, reckless or grossly negligent conduct. Most states will not enforce waivers of liability for intentional, reckless or grossly negligent conduct. This means a party is not protected by a liability waiver if, for instance, it engaged in fraud or conduct that was grossly negligent.
