Yes, You Can Contract Writing Via Email

Get Paid to Write posted a list of articles they felt were worth reading… I agree. Of course, my own post is there, but the one I liked best is Can an E-mail Agreement be a Binding Contract? from AllBusiness.com.

The bottom line? With the exception of certain documents, like wills and other family matters, court documents and some other exceptions, an email can be a binding contract. Electronic signatures were actually signed into law in June of 2000.

When I want to create a digital signature, I do it like this:

(signed electronically [date]) Anne Wayman. Of course, I’m not an attorney, but so far it seems to be working.

Write well and often,
