Legal use of eSignatures in online documents

eSignatures are legally recognized in the United States under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce (ESIGN) Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA). These laws establish that electronic signatures hold the same legal weight as traditional handwritten signatures. It is important for users to ensure that the documents being signed comply with relevant regulations and that all parties involved agree to use electronic signatures. This legal framework supports the validity and enforceability of eSigned documents in various contexts, including contracts, agreements, and forms.
