This is such a problem. I live in California--which is a sue crazy state. We 
have no "equine liability law" to protect us here. Many times I get friends 
of friends wanting to have a ride on one of my  gentle horses, or the 
neighbor boy wanting to learn to ride but I am just too afraid of being sued 
should anything happen. I've also been approached to give riding lessons, or 
board a horse.

I even hate selling a horse because of liability. How do you guys in Calif. 
protect yourself?
