A liability waiver, also called a release or release liability waiver forms, are legal agreements intended to limit a person’s right to sue a company, organization, or other third party.

This legal contract is very common and you may be asked to sign a liability waiver before you take part in ordinary activities like a gym, recreational sport, theme park, or anything else with inherent risks or unforeseen potential risks.

Though common signing waivers carry substantial legal import that may undercut your ability at all to bring a personal injury case after ordinary negligence, gross negligence, or even intentional misconduct that leads to a traumatic brain injury, wrongful death, or other harm.
