Extent of Relief Clause Samples

The "Extent of Relief" clause defines the boundaries and limitations of the remedies or relief available to a party under a contract. It typically specifies what types of relief—such as damages, specific performance, or injunctions—are permitted, and may set caps on liability or exclude certain types of losses. For example, it might state that a party is only entitled to direct damages and not consequential damages. The core function of this clause is to manage and allocate risk between the parties by clearly outlining the scope of remedies, thereby preventing disputes over the types and amounts of relief that can be sought in the event of a breach.
