Sign engagement letters, NDAs, settlement agreements, and other legal documents online. Legally binding under the ESIGN Act. Clients sign from their phone without driving to your office.
Start free — 3 documents/month. Pro is $8/mo. DocuSign charges $25/user/mo. 7-day free trial on all paid plans.
Paper-based signature workflows cost law firms more than time. They cost clients, billable hours, and competitive advantage.
Every day between a client's inquiry and a signed engagement letter is a day they might hire someone else. When signing an engagement letter requires printing, scanning, or an office visit, you lose momentum at the most critical moment.
A wet-ink signature on a fax is nearly impossible to authenticate if the client disputes it later. An electronic signature with an IP address, timestamp, and SHA-256 document hash is a far stronger evidentiary record.
At $25/user/month, a firm with 5 attorneys pays $1,500/year just for e-signatures. SignBolt's Pro plan is $8/month for the entire firm — saving over $1,400/year that can go toward operations, staff, or marketing.
Following up with clients about unsigned documents is unbillable time. Every minute spent chasing a signature on an engagement letter or settlement agreement is a minute not spent on client work.
The same core functionality. A fraction of the price.

Most legal documents can be signed electronically. Here are the ones law firms sign most frequently with SignBolt.
Onboard new clients faster. Send engagement letters for e-signature and get them returned the same day instead of waiting for mail.
Secure retainer commitments quickly. Clients review terms and sign from any device — no office visit required.
Protect confidential information with NDAs that get signed in minutes. Perfect for initial consultations and sensitive matters.
Close cases faster by collecting signatures on settlement terms electronically. All parties can sign remotely.
Collect sworn statements with e-signatures. Note: some jurisdictions may require notarization — check your local rules.
Authorize legal representation with a signed power of attorney. Clients sign from home, reducing delays in time-sensitive matters.
Sign and send demand letters with a verifiable signature. The audit trail provides evidence of when the letter was signed and sent.
While e-signatures are legally valid for most documents, certain legal instruments still require traditional wet-ink signatures or notarization. These typically include:
Always check your jurisdiction's specific requirements. When in doubt, consult your bar association's guidance on electronic signatures.
A simple, secure, and affordable e-signature solution designed for legal professionals who value compliance and client experience.
New clients shouldn't have to wait days to engage your firm. Send engagement letters and retainer agreements for e-signature, and start working the same day the client reaches out.
Every signature includes a timestamp, IP address, and cryptographic document hash. This creates a defensible record that holds up under scrutiny — critical for legal professionals.
Electronic signatures are legally binding under the federal ESIGN Act of 2000 and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), adopted in 47 states. Your e-signed documents carry the same legal weight as wet-ink signatures.
Law firms generate mountains of paper. E-signatures eliminate printing, scanning, mailing, and physical storage costs. Less overhead means better margins — or lower rates for your clients.
Four simple steps. No software to install. Your clients don't need an account.

Click anywhere on the document to place signature fields. Add date, initials, or text fields where needed.

First impressions matter in legal services. When a potential client contacts your firm, the last thing they want is to schedule an office visit just to sign an engagement letter. With SignBolt, you send them a link and they sign from their phone in under a minute.
This isn't just about convenience — it's about conversion. The faster a client can sign your engagement letter, the less likely they are to shop around or change their mind. Speed-to-engagement directly impacts your firm's revenue.
For ongoing matters, e-signatures make it easy to collect signatures on settlement offers, amendments, and other documents without requiring an office visit. Your clients will appreciate the modern experience, and you'll appreciate the time savings.
The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN) was signed into law on June 30, 2000. It provides that electronic signatures and records have the same legal standing as their paper equivalents. Combined with the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), adopted by 47 states, e-signatures are broadly accepted across the American legal system.
SignBolt's audit trail captures the signer's intent, identity verification through email, timestamp, IP address, and a SHA-256 hash of the signed document. This evidence package ensures your e-signed documents are defensible in court.
Every plan includes a 7-day free trial. No credit card required to start.

Yes. Electronic signatures are legally binding under the federal ESIGN Act of 2000 and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), adopted in 47 states. Engagement letters, NDAs, retainer agreements, and settlement agreements signed electronically carry the same legal weight as wet-ink signatures. SignBolt's audit trail — timestamps, IP addresses, SHA-256 document hashes — creates a defensible evidentiary record.
Yes. Certain legal instruments still require traditional signatures or notarization: court filings requiring original signatures per local court rules, documents requiring notarization (wills, certain deeds, some affidavits), certain real property transfers, and negotiable instruments under the UCC. Always check your jurisdiction's specific requirements and your bar association's guidance.
Yes. Clients receive a signing link via email and sign directly in their browser — no account, no app download required. This removes all friction from the client-onboarding process. The faster a client can sign your engagement letter, the faster you can start work.
SignBolt records each signer's IP address, timestamp, and a SHA-256 cryptographic hash of the exact document they signed. This creates a tamper-evident record: if anyone claims the document was modified after signing, the hash mismatch proves it. This evidence package is suitable for use in legal proceedings and dispute resolution.
The free plan covers 3 documents per month — enough for solo practitioners with occasional signing needs. The Personal plan ($4/mo) covers 10 documents. Pro ($8/mo) covers 50. Business ($24/mo) covers unlimited documents. All paid plans include a 7-day free trial.
Sign engagement letters, NDAs, and client documents in minutes — not days. Start free. No credit card required.
