Can this agreement be e-signed?

Yes. Electronic signatures are legally binding under the federal ESIGN Act (15 U.S.C. §7001) and UETA in adopted states when intent, consent, attribution, and record retention are satisfied.

Are witness or notarization required?

Not generally for service agreements. Some states or specific clauses (e.g., deed annexes) may require notarization or witnesses; verify state law before execution.

How should we authenticate signers?

Choose an authentication strength proportionate to risk: email link for low risk, SMS or knowledge-based checks for moderate risk, and SSO or certified workflows for high risk.

What if names or titles differ?

Correct mismatches before signing. Discrepancies in legal names or signatory authority can create enforceability issues and delay acceptance.

How long must we keep signed agreements?

Retain according to applicable law: IRS records 3 years (IRC §6501(a)); HIPAA-related records 6 years (45 CFR §164.530(j)); industry rules may require longer retention.

What if a party revokes consent to e-sign?

The ESIGN Act requires a consumer disclosure and ability to withdraw consent. If consent is withdrawn, obtain a paper signature or follow agreed alternate procedures.
