A cashiers check is far safer than a personal check, whether you are the payee or the payor. If you are the payee (the one receiving the check) and receive a personal check that is insufficient, you have very little recourse in obtaining the money owed to you. If you are paid with a cashiers check, it is guaranteed funds, since the bank will only issue the check with available funds (meaning it has to be paid for with cash or purchased at the person's bank, where the bank can verify there are sufficient funds in their account to cover the amount of the check). If you are the payor (the one paying by check), the bank can trace the check for you if the person to whom you were paying loses it or says they never received it. Also, if the check does get lost, it will be far more difficult for someone to forge their signature to it and cash it. Also, a cashiers check does not have as much personal identification on it like a personal check does (address, checking account number, etc.).

Yes, you have to sign a cashiers check before you give it to a payee. Some cashiers checks do not have to be signed. If there is a space to sign, you need to sign.
At the bank that you use
Yes.
You cannot generally change the payee on a cashiers check without it looking like fraud. Contact the issuer of the cashier's check in order to void the check and reissue.
