Legal Question in Business Law in Florida

Re: Damage to personal property

Your company needs to have a contractual agreement for customers to sign releasing your company from liability in the event of damage or loss caused to the customer's personal property (i.e., their vase). You can contact our office if you require assistance in obtaining a contractual agreement or you can email me at the listed email address.

..... what is your question?

If you are concerned how to avoid liability, have your customer sign a waiver which absolves you of any liability when this kind of request comes in. In addtion, you should exercise reasonable caution when preparing the arrangement.
