Taking a Fresh Look at E-Signatures, E-Delivery and E-Contracting

Companies are searching for new ways to have a wide range of documents (internal and external) signed safely under the new safe-distance rules and while dispersed. Join Locke Lord for a complimentary 60-minute webinar on April 29, 2020 that will cover the basics of e-signatures.

Topics will include:

• Are e-signatures recognized in all states? What are the exemptions?
• Can promissory notes be signed using electronic signatures?
• What are various forms of electronic signatures? Can en email suffice? What about a recorded, "Yes, I agree?"
• How do you prove who signed?
• Can electronic signatures be notarized?
• Are images created by my smart phone electronic records?
• Is an image of a signed document effective?
• How can we electronically sign an image without having special tools or without having to print the document?
• What are the regulatory compliance and evidentiary challenges?

During the workshop, we'll share the answers to these questions and more and leave plenty of time for Q&A.

Locke Lord has been advising clients on effective, compliant, enforceable e-contracting processes for more than two decades. Presenting will be four members of our Technology, Media & Telecommunications Industry Group: Gregory Casamento, Brian Casey and Patrick Hatfield.
