Consent / Waiver Language

This waiver text is included at the bottom of the form, above the signature field.

RELEASE OF LIABILITY, ASSUMPTION OF RISK, AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT: In consideration of being permitted to participate in the activity described above, I hereby: (1) RELEASE AND DISCHARGE the Releasee, its officers, employees, agents, and affiliates from all liability for injury, illness, death, or property damage arising from my participation; (2) ASSUME ALL RISKS, both known and unknown, inherent in the activity; (3) AGREE TO INDEMNIFY and hold harmless the Releasee from any claims, lawsuits, or demands brought by me or on my behalf, including attorney's fees. I acknowledge that this agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by applicable law. If any portion is held invalid, the remainder shall continue in full force and effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

They're used interchangeably in everyday language, but technically a waiver prevents future claims from arising, while a release discharges existing claims. In practice, most forms do both — they acknowledge risks (waiver) and release claims (release). Using both terms in your document covers all bases.

Indemnification means the participant agrees to cover the provider's costs if a third party (like the participant's family) files a claim. For example, if a parent signs a waiver for their kid and the kid gets hurt, the parent can't turn around and sue. The indemnification clause shifts that financial risk.

For high-risk activities (adventure sports, medical procedures, construction), yes. For lower-risk services, a well-drafted template is usually sufficient. Either way, state-specific language matters — waivers have different enforceability standards in each state. A one-time legal review costs $200-500 and is worth it.
