Senate Bill 18-062, also known as the "Snow Removal Service Liability Limitation Act," aims to protect snow removal companies by voiding clauses in contracts that require them to pay for damages or defend another party in a lawsuit. This means that if something goes wrong while clearing snow, the company won't have to cover costs beyond their own responsibilities.
