In 2020 when Covid hit we were scrambling to adapt our Waiver and Acceptance of Liability Form to deal with the rapidly changing landscape.

Leah and the Recreation Law Group helped us enormously, advised us on appropriate language, and got a final document out to us in a short time.

As a small business we need to be responsive and ahead of things as much as we can, and the Recreation Law Group got us there.

As we continue to move forward in a changing world, we will certainly use the firm again to ensure our assets are best protected.

As a company who has been running river trips for over 50 years it is easy to think we have everything dialed and know what we are doing. In a moment of humility, however, we hired Leah and Recreation Law Group for a Critical Incident Response Training.

Guides who have been with us for decades said the Critical Incident Response Training was the best training we have ever offered.

Recreation Law Group will help you find the weak spots in your operations and give your staff an eye-opening experience of what happens in a major accident. You will hopefully never need this training, but if you ever have an incident, you will look back on this being the most important training you hosted as a company.

The training also helps your staff show up as more empathetic humans who will be better guides due to what they learn in this class. Sign up now, it will be the best decision you will make this year.

We initially turned to Leah and Recreation Law Group for risk management support, which she does exceptionally well.

We’ve gradually moved to using her for all our business needs—from support with harassment investigations to COVID policies—including litigation.

We cannot imagine using someone else now that we’ve worked with Leah so extensively.

Leah Corrigan and the Recreational Law Group are the leaders in their field.

I used their service to overhaul our liability waivers for our hunting operation and trail ride business. They guided us through the entire process in a timely and efficient manner.

Accidents resulting in serious injuries and sometimes death to participants can and will happen when you provide backcountry trips. It’s imperative as an outfitter that you inform your clients of the myriad of inherent risks they could face during their hunting excursions.

Once your client understands those risks you must feel confident in the waiver they sign so your company is fully protected.

Thank you, Leah and the Recreational Law Group.

Leah has been an invaluable resource for our Association and many of our members.

Her depth of understanding of the culture, pressures, operating environment, and other factors impacting the industry places her in a league of her own.

Her presentations are a highlight at our annual meeting and conference year after year. From educational presentations to legal assistance, Leah has had a profound, positive impact on our Association and our members.

Aaron Lieberman

Executive Director - Idaho Outfitters & Guides Association

Using an interactive workshop with group participation, Leah pinpointed and addressed inappropriate behavior in the use of “slang” sayings to demeaning comments in the workplace arena.

This was tactfully addressed, identified, and communicated in a very professional and meaningful manner.

Even though some current staff said they had been through such topics at previous places of employment, they were able to both implement and learn from Leah and Recreation Law Group’s form of presentation.

Leah was able to help guide us through some of the tricky and ticklish currents of gender equity within our company.

She brought authority from being an attorney, credibility from being a river guide, and authenticity from being a caring, compassionate, and thoughtful human being.

We’re not done, but we never could have made it this far without her help.

General Manager - American River Touring Association (ARTA)

Leah’s advice and legal assistance have been an integral part of my swiftwater rescue consulting firm.

From the beginning, Leah has always ensured my assets are protected and that I’m operating in compliance with multiple agencies in a highly complex field.

I could not operate my firm and work with high profile clients without Recreation Law Group on my side.

Eric Riley

Owner - Swiftwater Safety Institute

Within the normal operations of our river company, a fatality occurred on one of our trips.

This was an emotional event that drastically impacted the family of the deceased. It also left the guides, staff, and owners emotionally distressed. Leah helped walk our company through the immediate aftermath ensuring we did everything which was legally prudent while also helping us learn from the event and grow as a company.

Later, when the lawsuit came, the guidance she gave us immediately after the event proved critical. Her support and guidance through the lawsuit itself resulted in the best possible outcome.

I don’t want to even think about where we would have been without her.

Of equal importance to her legal guidance was her human guidance.

This event was emotionally traumatizing for us all and Leah’s unique combination of legal prowess combined with her incredible humanity and her ability to see through the lens of a guide make her uniquely adept at supporting the people going through this extremely sad and scary event.

No question, Leah is a great lawyer; but of equal importance is that she is simply the person you want to go through this really challenging thing with for the way she will take care of your people and you.

Leah and Recreation Law Group are a top-notch legal practice capable of handling even the toughest situations.

I know firsthand. I’m the Board Chair of a Type 1 Diabetes camp for children, and Leah helped us navigate two major risks in a year, then create a sustainable risk management plan.

Leah and her team were compassionate and responsive, even after hours, and expertly guided us every step of the way.

After 46 years of operating Steens Mountain High Altitude Running Camp, I grew tired of bushwhacking, improvising, getting legal advice from those who had never hiked, ran, or fell down a steep incline, and borrowing camp waivers both off and on the internet.

Bam! Enter Recreation Law Group!

Steens Mountain High Altitude Running Camp now has custom crafted acknowledgement of dangers and risks and liability waivers, one for parents and their minor participants, and one for our adult running camp.

Leah Corrigan and Recreation Law Group were informative, professional, and patient when we needed to revise our release of liability and agreement not to sue and indemnify.

The wealth of legal knowledge Leah has, and her ability and willingness to share it is invaluable.

We are truly grateful that she is “on our team”.
