How to Use SubQuery in In Clause?

Where can I find a generic indemnity clause online to use for my business?

  • I'm offering a web service online to sell to small businesses and I'm looking for an indemnity clause (a you can't sue us for any loss of business, can't guarantee the service, etc...) to include with my contract.

  • Answer:

    Let me speak to this from a litigation perspective: Cases resulting from folks who did cut and paste jobs on standard contract clauses used to pay my rent.  And I don't mean that in a good way.  If you are writing a contract for an online service then you quite possibly will have to deal with competing laws of various jurisdictions, and putting in the wrong indemnity language can leave you with a hole in your contract large enough to drive a truck through -- or worse, sitting across the table from, well, somebody a lot like me (only not so nice, of course), who is busy driving the aforementioned truck. Most of the time I think that having to pay a specialist to create basic agreements is a waste of money, and I have made myself very unpopular at times by saying so. I will keep saying so:  I strongly believe in making clear agreements in simple language with as small a number of magic words as possible, and I know many non-lawyers who ably write a very mean contract.  But in this case?  No, seriously.  Your question reflects an approach which screams "Danger WIll Robinson".  Indemnity clauses are often very closely scrutinized and regulated; the law prefers to be the one to decide who is responsible for what. If you want to save money, write your agreement in clear, simple language, and get a lawyer to review it.  A lawyer who knows something about the area you are working in, for preference.

I was asked to provide an answer, but I'm afraid I must provide a non-answer: It's not clear exactly what you want or need. While you referred to an "indemnity clause", your parenthetical examples appear to refer to exclusion of consequential damages and disclaimer of warranties. I suspect that (a) there is no single clause that encompasses all of the protections that you desire and (b) one would need to know more about your business to respond properly, in any event.This answer is not a substitute for professional legal advice....
