Good Samaritan Law
The Good Samaritan Law is a legal principle that protects individuals who provide assistance to those who are injured or in danger. This law encourages bystanders to help others in emergency situations without the fear of being sued for unintentional harm. It applies to various scenarios, such as medical emergencies or accidents, where a person acts in good faith to help someone in need.
These laws vary by state or country, but they generally require that the assistance provided is reasonable and intended to help. The Good Samaritan Law aims to promote a culture of helping others, ensuring that people feel safe to intervene during emergencies without worrying about legal repercussions.
