Also you can put what ever disclaimer you want on a product or service but the fact is that if you damage a party and a court decides that you have in fact damaged that party a judge can award any amount he sees fit whether you have a disclaimer or not. The court will decide the validity of the disclaimer and the liability for the damages, merely writing that you are not responsible for something does not make it so. I would carry the proper insurance and not rely on a disclaimer untested by the court, it may work in one case and be determined useless in the next. Again I believe that this is merely an attempt to absolve one's self for liability created by a sub par work product. To restate, I am not referring to a statement that says that if the county did not have something properly indexed that you are not liable. The fact is that if you read some state statutes and rules you can be held liable even if it is indexed under a name that sounds the same, such as Johnson and Johnston. A dilligent searcher should always check these.
