Electronic Signatures

Electronic Signatures LSR R.S. 9:2603.1, et seq, provide for the use of electronic signatures and electronic transactions. In terms of electronically signing a home inspection report, any LHI may do so, but must place a statement in his or her Pre-inspection agreement whereby the client agrees to conduct the transaction by electronic means. If an LHI chooses to use only electronic delivery of reports with electronic signatures, he must have the consent of the client. This consent may be via electronic means as well. —Albert Nicaud; Legal Counsel for LSBHI
