Dismissal with prejudice means you are prejudicing your rights to bring any lawsuit in the future. Basically a settlement agreement will ask you to "waive" all rights to bring a future lawsuit once the case settles and all parties sign the settlement agreement. It is important to review this with an attorney before signing anything that could affect your rights in this regard. Especially if you are a Plaintiff in pro per in a wrongful foreclosure case, financial elder abuse case, or personal injury case. The Defendants will try to get "airtight" settlement language that will prevent you from filing lawsuits in the future for separate claims that arise, or for causes of action or damages that you did not know existed. The Defendants will normally also try to file a "California Civil Code Section 1542 waiver" so that you cannot come back at them once the settlement is concluded. This clause is designed to "buy their peace."

These clauses are not always 100% airtight and you may have grounds to file new causes of action in select types of cases. These waivers are not absolute and can be challenged in some cases.

Here is a blog we wrote about challenging settlement waivers:
