EP82: When Do You Need a Waiver Versus a Contract?

Legally Enlightened with Lisa Fraley

Waivers versus Contracts…. What are they – and what’s the difference between them? How do you know when you’re supposed to use a Waiver? When should you use a Contract instead? In this podcast episode, we clear up the confusion between Waivers and Contracts so that you can know when to use Waivers and when to use Contracts to protect yourself.

In this episode, Lisa shares:

• What a Waiver is and how it protects you
• When and why a Waiver will not hold up in court
• What a Contract is and why you should put it in writing
• How to know when to use a Waiver and when to use a Contract
• Different examples of when you’ll use Waivers or Contracts
• Why Lisa aligns Waivers with the root chakra and Contracts with the sacral chakra
