When one party needs to release another from liability, a Release Agreement can be used.

This usually is money; however, it can be anything that has value for the injured party.
The first party to the contract is the Releasor - this is a party receiving the monetary payment or other valuable consideration. A second party to the contract is the Releasee- this is usually a party that is at fault and has to be released from liability.
A Release Agreement typically releases the Releasee from all legal liability for any claims relating to the incident.
