AGREEMENT TO INDEMNITY FOR LOST RECEIPT
An indemnity given by a person who has received goods, articles or money but has lost the original receipt. The recipient acknowledges receipt and, for himself and his heirs, executors and administrators, undertakes to hold the payer or deliverer, its agents and servants, harmless and indemnified against all claims to the goods or money. A second signer certifies that the recipient is the bona fide owner and stands surety, undertaking the whole liability equally with the recipient.

Templates in our curated library are professionally drafted for US or UK law. The wider library comes from the GitLaw community and public sources - a solid starting point, but check any template fits your situation before you rely on it.
Mostly US and UK law. Some templates use general commercial terms that work across jurisdictions, and many note which law they're written for.
It depends on the situation. Templates work well for routine business agreements. For anything involving significant money, complex IP, employment, or areas you're unsure about, it's worth getting professional advice before you sign. GitLaw provides templates and tools, not legal advice.
Open any template in GitLaw and describe the change you want in the chat — 'make clause 4 mutual' or 'add a 30-day notice period', for example. GitLaw drafts the revised language and shows it as a suggested edit. You accept, reject, or keep editing from there.
Yes. Upload a Word, PDF, or Markdown file and GitLaw will open it in the editor. You can review, edit, or chat with GitLaw about it the same way you would with any template from the library.
