Can a Waiver That is Structured on Alabama Law Be Enforced in Another State?
When you sign a waiver in our store, you are signing a waiver based upon our understanding of Alabama law. In most cases, the actual activity covered by the waiver occurs in another state or country. If you were to bring an action against us, you would likely bring that action in the Alabama courts. If you were to somehow bring an action in another state, we are probably still protected, absent some extreme violation of that state’s public interest. Almost all states realize that it is in the publics best interest to honor a contract signed in another state. Without this understanding among the various state’s courts, all contracts would be worthless.
