Utilizing eSignatures: No Pen and Paper Required

Learn how to design an e-contracting process that addresses and minimizes risk.

This topic is intended to explain to you how a reasonably well designed e-contracting process can be less risky than a traditional paper and ink process. This material will include the basics for designing and implementing a common e-contracting process in every U.S. jurisdiction; e-delivery of consumer disclosures; effective use of voice signatures; a 6-point risk assessment framework, assessing authentication, repudiation, admissibility and compliance risks; steps to enhance admissibility and enforceability of e-documents, or if you prefer, mistakes to avoid in e-contract design; interplay between and among UETA (state laws), ESIGN Act (federal law) and other e-posting statutes (yet, more state laws); negotiable promissory notes signed using e-notes and e-signatures; and e-chattel paper under UCC Article 9, what is it and should I care?
