Legal Question in Business Law in California
Hold Harmless Agreements
Our church is using the facilities of another church. They want us to sign a Usage and Hold Harmless Agreement. Our objection is the agreement says nothing about them having to exercise due diligience to maintain the property in a secure and safe condition - it just says we will hold them harmless for anything that might happen while we are using the facilities. Do these agreements have any real effect if we could prove they did not maintain the property in a secure and safe manner? thank you

Re: Hold Harmless Agreements
Do agreements have 'real effect'? If they didn't, you wouldn't be worried about the details. You need to negotiate an appropriate agreement with all the terms necessary to protect both sides. That's how it's done properly. Feel free to contact me if you want professional help doing so.
