Horse Hauling Liability Release Form

Attorney-drafted equine legal forms based on decades of equine-law experience.

Opening your arena, trails, or cross-country course to outside riders brings in business, but it also brings in horses and people you don’t know.

Our attorney-drafted haul-in liability release lets stable and facility owners welcome riders who trailer in for lessons, clinics, schooling days, or trail access while limiting the facility’s exposure to claims for injury or property damage. The release documents the rider’s acknowledgment of the inherent risks of equine activities, confirms the horse is current on required health records and outlines facility rules riders agree to follow while on the property. Whether you host the occasional haul-in or run a busy schedule of outside riders, this form gives you a consistent, signed record for every visit.

What Does a Horse Hauling Liability Release Cover?

The horse owner agrees to accept all risks associated with loading, hauling and unloading, including injury and death. If the horse owner doesn’t provide leg wraps and other protective gear, the horse owner agrees to accept the increased risk of injury.

If the horse being hauled injures another horse or person, the horse owner agrees to defend the hauler against legal claims.

If the horse damages the hauler’s trailer or equipment, the horse owner agrees to pay for the damage.
