Description

This form is designed to release an art school from liability for injuries to a student while participant in the instruction being given by the school. A waiver or release is the intentional and voluntary act of relinquishing something, such as a known right to sue a person, educational institution, or organization for an injury. The term waiver is sometimes used to refer a document that is signed before any damages actually occur. A release is sometimes used to refer a document that is executed after an injury has occurred.


Courts vary in their approach to enforcing releases depending on the particular facts of each case, the effect of the release on other statutes and laws, and the view of the court of the benefits of releases as a matter of public policy. Many courts will invalidate documents signed on behalf of minors. Also, Courts do not permit persons to waive their responsibility when they have exercised gross negligence or misconduct that is intentional or criminal in nature. Such an agreement would be deemed to be against public policy because it would encourage dangerous and illegal behavior.

FAQ

The answer under Florida law is complicated. Generally, a court will enforce a waiver if certain requirements are met. However, waivers cannot eliminate a company's liability for personal injuries in all cases. Before a court will enforce a waiver, they must take a close look at it.

Liability waivers are enforceable in California solely to the extent they shift to the customer the risk of ordinary negligence.

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.

There are two main reasons a company will have you sign a liability waiver: 1) to document in writing that you have been warned of potential risks and 2) to remove their responsibility for injuries that arise from ordinary negligence.

In California, a liability waiver must be clear, unambiguous, and explicit. In other words, waivers cannot be printed in faded ink, in small font, on the back of a paper, or in an otherwise ambiguous form. If the waiver that you sign is not represented clearly, it may not hold up in the event of a lawsuit.

To be valid and enforceable, liability waivers in Florida must contain language that is clearly written, unequivocal, unambiguous and specific on the risks and rights being waived by the signee.

To sum things up, although Florida courts look with disfavor on a pre-injury waiver of liability agreement, such an agreement is enforceable if it is clear and unequivocal. Such an agreement can include gross as well as simple negligence, but intentional torts cannot be waived.

Can I still make a claim? Even if you signed a waiver of liability at a gym or sporting event, you still have the right to be kept safe, and to claim compensation if you were injured through someone else's negligence.
