In 2000, the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) brought the legal world into the new millennium by making electronic signatures a valid method of signing an agreement. UETA worked together with the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-Sign Act) to create a set of legal guidelines for establishing the validity of an e-signature.
Today, you and your clients can sign legally binding documents online as long as the electronic signature meets the following criteria:
The signature is verifiable.
The parameters of the transaction are communicated.
There is intent to sign.
Records can be retained.
With CosmoLex’s LexSign integration, law firms don’t have to wonder whether their electronic signatures will hold up in court. LexSign is designed to capture valid signatures for any legal documents shared between a lawyer and their client.

There isn’t anything I don’t like. Easier timekeeping and keeps the books straight because they have to match up…we switched because it includes bookkeeping and timekeeping in one program.

We needed to find an alternative solution to PCLaw, as we were moving to a cloud-based system. It appeared the employees at CosmoLex had more experience in migrating the data from PCLaw to CosmoLex.

Using a third-party platform for accounting didn’t make sense anymore…conflict check approach is good and I like the ability to handle my accounting within the case management software.
