Hold Harmless and Indemnity Agreement

Protecting Parties Through Legal Commitment and Risk Allocation

At US Capital Private Bank, ensuring clear and legally binding agreements between parties is essential to safeguard assets and mitigate risks. The Hold Harmless and Indemnity Agreement (HHIA) is a critical legal tool used to allocate responsibility and protect against claims, losses, or damages.

📜 What Is a Hold Harmless and Indemnity Agreement?

• Definition:
  A contractual agreement where one party agrees not to hold the other party liable for certain damages or losses, and to indemnify (compensate) them if claims arise.

• Purpose:
  To limit liability and transfer risk associated with specified activities or transactions.

• Common Usage:
  Business contracts, service agreements, trust arrangements, and financial transactions.
