Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
I would like to rent out a designated area on my property that i live on ,an acre, for people to have parties such as wedding receptions etc.. I only carry forced home insurance with my lender. Can i avoid incident and injury libilities by having each guest sign a wavier and / or posting a sign at the entrance releasing me from all libility once they enter ? Does the wording have to be just right or is there a standard form to use . I live in Florida, Hillsborough County, Seffner . I submitted this question to injury law as well.

You could have a guest sign a waiver, but you may still be liable under premises liability if you fail to use reasonable care to keep the premises safe and this failure results in a guest's injury. You will also be required to exercise reasonably care in maintenance, inspection, repair, warning or mode of operation. I don't know of any publicly available form that will accomplish what you want. I would advise you to seek legal assistance regarding the liability waiver and any contract you may want to create for your business.
