Living Room / "Waiver of Liability"... suggestions?
« Last post by wreckedcarzz on September 05, 2008, 11:52 PM »OK, most of the common DC'ers know that I run a small computer fix-it thing in the local area for friends and family... but this has since extended to the local college (!) and I have an offer from 2 separate people to fix 6 computers - and I don't want to buy either one of them a new one if it were to say, explode all over their office.
My dad advised me, since I am getting paid a somewhat reasonable sum of money, that I take the time to devise something to save myself in case of fire (see above explosion scenario
). Problem is, as a couple members here know, I SUCK at legal stuff (I'm 15, what do you really expect?). So, does anyone have any tips or thoughts or guidelines? I just need something that says "I am doing this for $__, I am not liable if your house, bank, dog, car, and chimney explode and cause the carjacking down the road of your best friend's boat and SUV..."
