What is the legal digital?

The term "legal digital" refers to documents and signatures that are created, signed, and managed electronically, ensuring compliance with legal standards. In the United States, electronic signatures are recognized under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN) and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA). This means that a legal digital signature holds the same weight as a traditional handwritten signature, provided it meets specific criteria.

Using a legal digital signature involves several straightforward steps. First, prepare the document you wish to sign or send for signature. This can be done by uploading the file to a secure platform like airSlate SignNow. Next, you can fill out any required fields directly within the document. Once ready, you can send the document for signature to the intended recipients via email or a secure link.
