I posted a reward on my website for information about a case I’m investigating on my own. I informed any would-be informants that the reward would be in writing through an evidentiary NDA, also known as a service agreement. This agreement states that if an individual shares useful information against another party in court, they are entitled to part of the settlement or a reward amount. As of today, I haven’t been contacted by anyone interested in my offer, and I think it might be because they doubt I will pay them. Is there any way to get out of paying the reward after the evidentiary NDA is signed by the recipient in front of a notary? I’ve assumed that I have to pay or risk being sued.
