Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
signature
I had a service person come out to fix non-working internet, my roomate is the account holder and I am not on the account. He then had me sign a paper ''that the interntet worked and the problem was resolved'' her name was on the paper and I signed it. I have no signature autority over her as I do not have a power of attorney and we are not legally bound. Is this a valid contract? Can you point me in the direction of the law that spells this out?

From the information you provided, it does not sound like a contract at all but rather a record of a service call. Generally, contracts law requires both parties to execute a contract for it to be binding. There is no specific law on this topic.
