What questions do you ask an electrician who is helping install outlets?

What kind of insurance and credentialing should an electrician have to install bathroom outlets and move some of the wires in the wall from one bathroom counter over head light to two over headlights over the two sinks?
What kind of insurance, bonding, contracts etc should we be looking for?
Thanks

    Did you hire an individual or a contractor? If individual, the electrician should carry a state license or journeyman card. He should carry workman’s comp and liability insurance. You can ask to see the certificates at the time of signing a contract. For a job this small, however, there may not be an official contract. If he gave you an estimate or proposal, and you both sign it, it becomes a binding agreement. Ask to see his insurance info before you sign the proposal and you are good to go. Hope this helps.
