A Texas liability waiver form is a legal document used to exonerate from liability for certain activities in Texas. It indicates that the releasor knows the risks and is willing not to sue the releasee in the event of an accident or damage. A liability waiver form is also used to agree to a settlement where instead of going to a costly lawsuit, liability is waived in exchange for a fee.

1. Identification of the Parties

1.1 State.

​This document has validation within the state of Texas which will be the place where the matter will take place.

1.2 Date.

This release of liability was made on [Document.CreatedDate] between:

1.3 Names of parties involved.

Releasor:[Releasor.FirstName][Releasor.LastName], at [Releasor.StreetAddress][Releasor.City][Releasor.State][Releasor.PostalCode] and

Releasee: [Releasee.FirstName][Releasee.LastName], at [Releasee.StreetAddress][Releasee.City][Releasee.State][Releasee.PostalCode]

The releasor is the one who will be signing and agreeing to the release of the fault and agreeing not to sue. On the other hand, the releasee is the party at risk of being sued and seeking to be exonerated by the document.

1.4 Express waiver of liability between the parties.

Releasor and anyone standing in Releasor's stead as a legatee irrevocably releases Releasee or anyone representing, co-forming, or working with Releasee (who shall be referred to for purposes hereof as "Released Parties") from any liability that may arise due to: (Released Claims). In turn, the Releasor waives the possibility of forming a case, claim, complaint, dispute, damages, etc., against the Releasee that may exist at this time or in the future regarding the same subject matter.

Any situation left to interpretation may cause future legal disputes between the parties, so it’s advisable to be specific in your liability waiver form.

2. Compensation for Exoneration of Liability

2.1 Indication of the compensation received

In exchange for the release of liability and the impossibility of legally acting on the situation described above, the Releasee will provide the Releasor with a payment. This will be delivered through (Payment.Amount)/(Item.Description).

2.2 Express indication of Releasor compliance

In consideration of such payment, Releasor agrees to receive the same by accepting the agreement herein and in full satisfaction thereof. In addition, he/she also waives all claims with respect to such compensation now or in the future.

The express acceptance of compensation clause lets you avoid future complaints or disagreements from the Releasor regarding the object or payment. Although it’s not mandatory but advisable to add this clause to your Texas liability waiver form.

3. State or Jurisdiction Where the Document Will Be Valid

Clearly indicate the waiver of the fault and the preponderance of the document over other previous written or oral agreements. Indicate the law of the state under which it’ll be valid (in this case Texas).

This release agreement is legally binding between the parties, their heirs, administrators, and any additional assigns or assignees of the fact hereof. The Releasor has the power to free any claim and has not assigned, and may not assign, any claim to a third party. If one provision herein is held invalid, it does not invalidate the remaining ones of the contract. This release is the final result of discussion by both parties and supersedes all agreements previously obtained. This document may not be modified in any way except by authorization of both of the parties on it. The terms of this release are regulated under the laws of the jurisdiction of the State of Texas.
