What if you get sued over Rona?
What if I get sued over Rona? I have to wonder how many of you have had that thought run through your head. I would imagine the chances of getting sued by a client if they contract the nasty little rona virus from you or your studio and they experience any hardships, like getting very sick, getting others very sick, medical expenses, longterm help complications, distress, loss of income from not being able to work and so on, there is a definite possibility that you will find yourself in court. It has weighed on our minds, I mean after all in America you can sue anyone over just about anything and if they can trace it back to your studio, a lawsuit could ensue. Better to be safe than sorry when it comes to following the rules and guidelines put out by your state on reopening, as well as documenting how you are protecting yourself and your clients. What should you be documenting? Does having a client sign a waiver mean that they can’t hold you liable in court if they contract the virus from your studio? Will your liability insurance protect you if you get sued? Are there any laws put in place by the government to protect businesses from being sued over Rona? Well, we are not lawyers by any means but we did research the shit out of those questions and we’re sharing everything we’ve found on today’s episode.
