Legal Question in Employment Law in Maryland

Each party shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party, its board members, officers, employees, agents and students (if the University) from and against any costs, losses, damages, liabilities, expenses, demands and judgments, including court costs and attorney fees, which may arise out of the indemnifying party�s acts or omissions under this Agreement for which the indemnifying party would be liable in law or equity

Should I interpret this as we would be responsible for the acts and omissions of our personnel that we would legally be liable for?

You should be very careful signing an agreement with an indemnity/hold harmless provision. Before a lawyer can fully answer your question, they would need to read the quoted provision in context of the entire agreement. If you would like for a Maryland lawyer to review the contract, please feel to contact me at 404-227-0429.

Best of luck.*****The above is for informational purposes and does not create an attorney-client privilege.******
