Law Insta Contracts

Separate the delivery method from the legal question

The U.S. E-SIGN provision linked below concerns electronic form in covered transactions; it does not replace the other substantive requirements of law. A question about a signing interface is therefore different from a question about capacity, authority, the content of obligations, or available remedies.

Give counsel the facts that change the analysis

Identify the parties, their locations, the subject matter, the proposed performance, and any unusual features. Explain whether consumers, sensitive information, regulated activity, or a cross-border relationship are involved. Do not select a governing-law clause from a generic example and assume that the choice resolves every issue.

Keep the desired outcome separate from the wording

Explain what should happen if the deal changes or fails: a missed delivery, an unavailable participant, a disputed result, or an early ending. Counsel can assess the proposed legal position. Your operational team should confirm whether the promised notice, handover, or remediation process can actually be carried out.
