Legal Question in Entertainment Law in New York

Do I need a permit to distribute surveys?

I would like to write a book based on anonymous answers to a list of questions I have devised. Can I distribute this list freely, and/or on counters of local stores (with owner's permission) withoug some sort of permit? Providing I clearly state on the survey my intention?

Re: Do I need a permit to distribute surveys?

You can, but it is highly questionable that a survey distributed in such a manner would be scientifically significant and accordingly the results would be unlikely to be reliable.

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can call my office to schedule an appointment for a consultation or in the alternative, I can be reached for on-phone low-cost legal consultation at 1-800-275-5336 x0233699.
