Abstract
The article examines legal disclaimers found in multimodal healthcare insurance texts. After commenting on their interactive and international character, it focuses on a number of lexico-grammatical features of these texts, drawing attention to the hybrid informative / legal nature of the language choice. Language plays an essential role in the disclaimers from both a persuasive and a legal point of view as the success of a disclaimer would seem to be highly dependent on the felicity of the language choice.
