Contracts
Waiver And Release
Washington
Can a Release and Waiver Agreement protect me from liability if someone gets injured while participating in an activity I organized?
I recently organized a charity event where participants engage in physically demanding activities such as obstacle courses and sports. I want to ensure that I am not held liable for any injuries that may occur during the event, so I am considering having participants sign a Release and Waiver Agreement. However, I am unsure if this agreement would actually protect me from potential legal claims and if there are any specific requirements or limitations I should be aware of when drafting the agreement.
Merry K.
First, if a participant is under 18, their parent or legal guardian must sign for them. Second, all these types of releases/waivers do is slow people down or discourage them from suing, but a good attorney can get around most of these (especially ones you buy off the internet). You should, at a minimum, make a good effort to ensure that all activities are as safe as possible, and also make sure you, your Board members, staff, and the organization are covered by solid insurance. I'm not trying to discourage you - I just want you to be very careful.

Podcast Contract
Georgia
Can a podcast contract restrict the host from starting a new podcast after the termination of the current one?
I am a podcast host who is currently under contract with a podcast network, and I am considering starting a new podcast once my current contract ends. However, I am unsure if the contract I signed prohibits me from doing so, as it contains clauses about exclusivity and non-compete agreements. I would like to know if it is legally permissible for the network to restrict me from starting a new podcast after the termination of the current one, and what steps I can take to ensure my rights are protected in this situation.
Jerome L.
1. Post-Termination Non-Compete Clauses It is legally possible for a contract to include a post-termination non-compete, but these are subject to limitations. Courts generally look at: Duration (e.g., 6–12 months) Geographic scope (less relevant for digital content but still noted) Scope of restriction (e.g., same topic, format, or competing platforms) If the restriction is overly broad—like prohibiting you from podcasting at all—it may be unenforceable depending on your state’s laws. 2. Exclusivity Clauses (During the Contract) Many podcast contracts prohibit hosting or producing other shows during the term. That’s typical. The issue becomes: does the language extend after the agreement ends? If so, you’ll want to review: Whether it’s a true non-compete How long it lasts If there’s compensation tied to the restriction 3. IP & Ownership Check whether the network claims ownership over: Your host name or likeness The podcast’s brand or concept Past episodes and subscriber lists They may argue that launching a “similar” show is derivative or confusingly similar if they own your original show’s IP. What You Can Do: Review the exact contract language—pay close attention to any clause that mentions exclusivity, non-compete, or “work for hire.” Consult with an attorney (I’d be glad to assist) to evaluate whether the restrictions are enforceable or negotiable. If you're not yet at the end of the agreement, you may also consider negotiating a clean exit or carve-out for future projects. Let me know if you’d like help reviewing your agreement—I can walk you through what’s enforceable, what’s negotiable, and how to position yourself for creative freedom moving forward.

Business Contract

Reviewing a business contract: cost?
I am starting a new business and need to enter into a contract with a supplier. I have been provided with a contract to review, but I am unsure of the associated costs. I am looking for legal advice on the cost of reviewing the contract and whether there are any potential pitfalls or areas of risk that I should be aware of before signing.
Eddy M.
The cost will depend on several factors: - Length of the document - Quality of the contract (if it's poorly drafted then it will require more work to revise) - Complexity of the transaction (the more complex, the more time is needed to understand it and solve problems) - Your leverage vs. the supplier's (if you don't much leverage, then the contract will require a lighter touch as far as revisions) The best course of action is to do an initial consultation with your lawyer of choice to discuss the above. After that, the lawyer will be able to give you a sense of the cost, and make a proposal on either an hourly rate or a flat fee.

Membership Agreement
Massachusetts
What are the legal implications of terminating a membership agreement with a fitness club?
I recently signed a membership agreement with a fitness club that included a one-year commitment. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I am now unable to continue using their facilities. I would like to understand the legal implications and potential consequences of terminating the membership agreement before the one-year term is completed, as well as any potential financial obligations or penalties I may face.
Richard G.
The ramifications of terminating a membership agreement with a fitness club is going to depend highly upon the contract that the club and the club user have executed. The devil is most definitely in the details in any contract. Have your contract reviewed by an attorney with years of experience in contract review/drafting, etc.

Equity Agreement
Pennsylvania
How much equity should investors get?
Hi there, I'm seeking counsel for a startup/small business with two initial investors. These investors have established auto repair businesses and will use those businesses as leverage to support a $500k loan that will be used to initially fund the business. Revenues from those businesses will be used to pay the loan until the business can pay for them. I will be providing all sweat equity. The investors above will have no involvement in the day-to-day (as they run their own businesses). One investor may provide connections to potential clients and if necessary, an additional investor.
Amy Sue L.
This is really a business question, as much as it is a legal question - although lawyers can certainly help you structure and document it once answered. That said, I think you're likely to find a spectrum of answers - on one end of the spectrum, there are 3 investors with equal shares (each having 1/3 of the equity - 2 of which receive their percentage in consideration for $ investments, while you receive yours for your efforts in running the business day-to-day- in this scenario, everyone and everything they bring to the table is equally valued); on the other end of the spectrum, there are 2 investors with equal or otherwise proportionate shares (each having 1/2 of the equity - or some other percentages that total to 100% - in consideration for their respective $ investments, which may differ depending on the value of the businesses underlying the loans), and you are considered an employee of the business (not an investor), who will receive compensation for running the business- presumably a salary and possibly including incentives based on the success of the business; and of course, there are some variations that could impact any or all parties in the middle of the spectrum. I suggest that you have a conversation with your potential partners to learn how each party views the value being brought to the enterprise by the others and begin the negotiation from there. Note also that this deal sounds simple in theory but may become a little complicated due to the funding mechanism being used on the back end.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
