General Release Sample Clauses
A General Release clause serves to discharge one or more parties from any and all claims, liabilities, or obligations that may have arisen up to the date of the agreement. In practice, this means that once the release is signed, the releasing party cannot pursue legal action or demand further compensation for matters covered by the release, regardless of whether those claims were known or unknown at the time. This clause is commonly used in settlement agreements or contract terminations to ensure that disputes are fully resolved and to prevent future litigation over the same issues.
