Many agreements can be signed by more than one person through an electronic process. Federal law generally says a signature or record cannot be denied legal effect only because it is electronic. Each party must still consent to the process, and other laws may add rules.
General information
- Possible resource or approach: a final version that every signer can read and keep.
- Recording who signed, when, and which version was signed.
- Some document types are excluded from parts of the federal E-SIGN rule or have special state rules.
Service steps to consider
- Checking the law and the receiving party's rules before using e-signatures.
- Risk: using an e-signature when a wet signature, witness, or notarization is required.
How 360 Legal Forms can help
360 Legal Forms says users can invite others to review and sign documents online. Customer support can explain website features and form fields, but it cannot select a form or legal terms, interpret a completed document, or explain how the law applies to a user's facts.
Important limits
- The platform feature does not remove any witness, notary, filing, or delivery rule. This article gives general information only. A licensed attorney can answer questions about a specific person's rights, risks, document choice, wording, or legal result.
