A guard who is checked, trained and supervised is worth far more than one who is not. Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - Get everything in writing. - Know who the team lead is. - Confirm price and extras. Quick answer Before you book an escort, confirm twelve things in writing: licence, scope, dates and times, team size, vehicles, route, communication, who the team lead is, insurance, price, cancellation terms and confidentiality. Most disputes come from vague agreements, not from the job itself.
