Any agreement entered into on or after the effective date of this Section by any person within 15 days after he incurs a personal injury, which is related to his right to be compensated for such injury, including but not limited to agreements relating to waivers of procedural or other rights, may be disavowed in writing by such injured person or, in the case of a minor, also by his parent or guardian, within one year after the making of the agreement. No agreement disavowed may be introduced as evidence in any judicial or administrative proceeding. In order to be effective, any such disavowal shall be sent by registered mail to the person by whom it was obtained or on whose behalf it was obtained, or to the attorney of the defendant against whom action is brought for such personal injury, at the last known address of such person or attorney, and no disavowal shall be ineffective because unaccompanied by an offer to return any consideration accepted on account of the agreement. In lieu of making a disavowal by registered mail as provided herein, such disavowal may be made by a pleading in an appropriate action or proceeding provided that such pleading is filed within one year after the making of the agreement disavowed.

In the event of the death, incompetence or disability of the injured person, his executor, administrator, guardian or other personal repre- sentative may make the disavowal in the manner and within the time period provided in this section.
