In addition, it has been designed to comply with UETA and E-SIGN Federal Legislation, and in fact exceeds these laws in many areas. An in-depth legal review and analysis of DocuSign®, conducted by the leading business law firm, Lord, Bissell & Brook has determined the following: "Based on our analysis, we believe the DocuSign® electronic signature process... can result in signatures and documents that are as binding and enforceable as documents signed in wet ink on paper using traditional means.” Today, consumers sign online contracts every day - agreements on web sites, online stock trading accounts, etc. DocuSign® extends this model to any document that needs to be sent for signature and delivers the secure knowledge that the agreement will have the same legal effect as if paper had been sent. By addressing and solving the key factors needed for enforceable electronic signatures, those of intent, proof of identity, and non-repudiation, DocuSign® provides an economical and easily deployable solution that does not require expensive software or digital certificates. DocuSign® efficiently puts control over the authentication process into the hands of our corporate customers; giving them the tools to easily deploy legally enforceable electronic signature processes that meet their real-world business needs.
