A letter of declaration is a letter that has a very broad usage. It’s purpose it just to declare, or verify, something. For example, if you were to take part in a movie shoot, you may be asked to sign a letter of declaration, stating that you are aware of the risks involved and that you are solely responsible for any medical costs. Another example may be when signing over your house when it is foreclosed upon; you would sign a declaration stating that the bank has full control over your house.

Sample letter of declaration

Moonlight Rising

I, Sean A. Mcmurtry, hereby declare that I am aware of all the potential hazards of filming the movie “Moonlight Rising”. I am aware that I may be put in certain dangerous situations, and that the director, the producers, or the movie company are not responsible for my safety and/or any healthcare related costs I may incur.

I declare that I am solely responsible for my own actions, and that if any of the above happens, I will not pursue any legal action against said personalities.
