Launch Settlement For Free

Definition: Release of All Claims It is a document agreeing to resolve the parties' differences, dismiss their claims, and release the opposing parties from liability. Release of all claims forms are also called liability waiver forms.

The release of claims is an agreement between an employer and a worker whose employment has been terminated. Employees typically sign the document in return for a severance package. The release is meant to limit potential litigation for reasons such as discrimination.

Like any contract, a release should be supported by new, valid consideration. A release agreement should acknowledge that the employee otherwise is not entitled to the amount paid. The agreement also should state that all earned wages have been, or will be, paid, to avoid later claims for unpaid earned wages.

After the settlement agreement is finalized and you have signed the release documents, a check will be issued and deposited into your lawyer's trust account. Once the check clears, your attorney will pay off any outstanding legal fees and any other debts you may have related to your injuries.
