Must the written contract for PI services be signed by the PI?

Yes
No
Only in certain states
Only for specific services

The correct answer is: Yes

Most states require a written contract in order to protect both the client and the private investigator in case of any disputes. It is important for both parties to clearly outline the scope of services, fees, and time frames in a written contract. Not having a signed contract could leave both parties vulnerable to misunderstandings or legal issues. Option B is incorrect because, as mentioned, most states do require a written contract. Option C is incorrect because all states require a written contract for PI services, not just certain states. Option D is incorrect because a written contract is necessary for all services offered by a PI, not just specific ones.
