Legal Question in Business Law in California

liability disclosure

I am searching for information regarding liability

disclosure forms that companies have their

customer fill out and sign. Companies that run

somekind of operation, like motorcycle tracks,

where their customers could get hurt. I'm looking

for information regarding the ways companies

can protect themselves from getting sued and

would greatly be appreciated if I could get some

help. Thank You

Re: liability disclosure

Generally, such companies hire an attorney to draft a "hold harmless" type of waiver agreement to prevent direct liabilities. If the negligence or other consequences are deemed gross or wilful these types of agreements can be thwarted.

Re: liability disclosure

You probably need something that is crafted for your particular industry. For example, a "disclosure" at a ski resort, where there is active participation, might be different than one for a sporting event, such as automobile racing, where a spectator could be injured.

I am in Pleasanton, and would be happy to help you.
