Event Insurance & Liability is a critical legal service for organizers of festivals, concerts, sports competitions, and corporate events. Any large-scale event involves high risks: bad weather, artist no-shows, equipment damage, or guest injury. Legal support entails risk assessment and legal analysis of insurance policies to ensure the organizer's financial protection against unforeseen incidents.
Our service covers the full legal cycle of event risk management:
- Insurance Policy Analysis: Reviewing Public Liability, Cancellation Insurance, and property insurance contracts for "traps" and exclusions.
- Third-Party Liability: Legal defense if a guest gets injured or someone else's property is damaged at the event.
- Force Majeure Clauses: Drafting contract terms that release the organizer from liability during pandemics, natural disasters, or other acts of God.
- Safety Regulations: Ensuring compliance with fire, sanitary, and safety norms; liaising with emergency management services.
- Claims Management: Handling disputes with insurance companies to receive compensation when an insured event occurs.
A practical example: An open-air festival gets cancelled due to a severe storm. If the organizer didn't properly secure "Cancellation Insurance" or include a "weather clause" in contracts, they would have to refund tickets out of pocket, potentially leading to bankruptcy. Another example: A speaker falls at a concert and damages expensive equipment. Who is liable—the rental company or the organizer? This depends on the contract.
In Georgia, insurance matters are regulated by the Civil Code of Georgia and the Law on Insurance. Mass event safety is regulated by administrative acts and Ministry of Internal Affairs regulations. The organizer bears a "Duty of Care" towards the attending public.
The lawyer helps the organizer select the right insurance product and negotiate with the insurance company. They also prepare "Waiver" documents for participants in risky events. Legal.ge offers experts who will protect your event from financial disaster.
Peace of mind before an event is a luxury that proper insurance and legal support can provide. Find a specialist on Legal.ge.
