A Consequential Damages Waiver is a clause commonly found in contracts that limits or eliminates a party’s liability for indirect or consequential losses arising from a breach of the contract. Consequential damages, as opposed to direct damages, refer to losses that do not flow directly and immediately from the act complained of but arise as a secondary result of the breach. These can include lost profits, loss of business opportunities, or damage to reputation.
A Consequential Damages Waiver should be used when parties want to minimize their exposure to claims for indirect or unforeseen losses. It’s particularly important in scenarios where the potential for extensive, unpredictable damages is high:
When drafting a Consequential Damages Waiver, clarity and specificity are essential. Consider the following example:
“Neither party shall be liable to the other for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to lost profits, even if such party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.”
It’s important to ensure that the waiver is clear about what constitutes consequential damages and that it is not overly broad, which might render it unenforceable.
Consequential Damages Waivers are typically found in a variety of contracts, especially those involving significant risk and complexity. Common examples include:
By including a consequential damages waiver, parties can better manage their risk exposure and foster clearer understandings of liability limits.

Consequential damages refer to losses that do not flow directly and immediately from an act but rather result indirectly from the act's harmful consequences, such as lost profits or business opportunities. These damages are often excluded in contracts to limit a party's liability for these indirect, and sometimes unforeseeable, damages stemming from breaches or other issues.
A contract amendment is a formal alteration to the terms of an existing contract, agreed upon by all parties involved. It allows changes to specific provisions without voiding the original contract, ensuring that the agreement remains relevant and effective in addressing the parties' needs.
Contract consideration refers to the value or benefit that each party agrees to exchange as part of the agreement, which is necessary for a contract to be legally binding. It can include money, services, goods, or a promise to refrain from a specific action.
