Default friends working together in shop

Looking for some advise or experiences.
My tools and shop and buddy or neighbor gets
hurt doing something. What do you do to keep
from possible legal problems associated with
an accident. How do you protect yourself
without first making a lawyer drawn up contract
with them? Or is that what you have to do. I'm aware of
making sure they know how to use tools safely
but what else.


It's been interesting reading the comments to this. I'm up in Canada so
maybe things are different here, but I haven't heard of anyone suing a
friend because they were injured in a friend's shop. It's probably
happened, but I haven't heard of it.
