What is the name of your state? Oregon
In the lease agreement i was sent by my future landlord, it included the following provision.
INDEMNIFICATION. Landlord shall not be liable for any damage or injury of or to the Tenant, Tenant's family, guests, invitees, agents or employees or to any person entering the Premises or the building of which the Premises are a part or to goods or equipment, or in the structure or equipment of the structure of which the Premises are a part, and Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from any and all claims or assertions of every kind and nature.
My roommate thinks this is completely out of line and believes that we're opening ourselves up to getting sued for something that wouldn't be covered by renters insurance. Hopefully someone out there can shed some light on what this is actually saying. thanks.
