MichiganHuntr1 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 I need some liability papers for hunting on someone elses land ASAP. I am talking to someone about Waterfowl hunting their land, and the lady said they usually say no to anybody because of liability. I said i can get the papers, she said if they seem good enough to work. Then theyll let me. Shes worried about someone getting hit with a bullet, or me getting hurt and it coming back on them. So.... I need something thats professional looking, that is pretty legal as well. Saying that i cant sue them, and i am responsible for anything that happens from my actions. Thanks, Whoever gives me the best document will be worshiped by me, lol jk. Dustin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiobucks Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Re: HELP ASAP please. If you Google "hold harmless forms" or "release liability forms", you'll have your pick of examples. Good luck brother! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
need2hunt Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Re: HELP ASAP please. Heres the info on the one that the Illinois DNR has on their website, you can probably change it to be suited for MI. This link takes you to the .pdf file if you want to see what it looks like, I copied the text and put it below if you just want to take it and arrange it for yourself. http://www.dnr.state.il.us/Law3/PermissionCard.pdf [ QUOTE ] LAND ACCESS PERMISSION - Respect - Ask - Share - Thank- IDNR Law Enforcement 1-877-236-7529 TO BE RETAINED BY LANDOWNER User’s Name_______________________________________ Address _________________________________________ City _____________________________________________ State ______________________ Zip ___________________ Phone (work) __________(home) _____________________ Vehicle Description License Number ___________________ Make ________________Model ___________ Color _______ Time period and Activities Permitted and Additional Information: ___________________________________________________ In return for the privilege to use private land, I agree to abide by landowner rules, obey all laws, and conduct myself in a safe and ethical manner and release and waive any claim against the landowner for personal injury.

Squirrelhunter91 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Re: HELP ASAP please. Most states have a landowner liability law. They were put in to prevent bogus lawsuits against landowners by hunters getting into accidents on their land. I know NY has a Landowner liability. http://public.leginfo.state.ny.us/menugetf.cgi?COMMONQUERY=LAWS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest harryjoe Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Re: HELP ASAP please. I bet a lawyer can draw up some papers for you for under a hundred bucks. If it's a great spot that you can use for years to come, it will be well worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Re: HELP ASAP please. Something I found out here from the wildlife office this year is that if you have sole exclusive rights and have it in a formal written version that has been notarized, then you can act as the landowner with prosecuting violators on that land.
