Introduction
For venues in Florida, state law requires that notices to a minor’s natural guardian appear more prominently than the rest of the waiver. The statement must be in uppercase letters and at least 5 points larger than the standard waiver text.
For example, if the waiver uses a 12pt font, the section for minors must be at least 17pt. Meeting these requirements is essential for compliance and helps protect your business from legal risk.
Solution
Edit your waiver text by applying HTML formatting to increase the size of the minors section so it stands out as required.
Please note that changes will not apply to waivers already signed.
