Legal · Use case

In-house and outside counsel use legesis to keep the closing binder honest. Every redline, every reissue, every signed page lives in one auditable chain — discoverable, exportable, and ready for the next deal.

Meet
Elena Rivas
General Counsel · Atwater & Klein, LLP

Elena runs a seven-lawyer corporate legal team that closes north of four hundred agreements a quarter. Her firm moved off DocuSign last spring because no one — least of all their IT — could explain why discovery requests took three weeks to fulfill.

A day in the life

Four moments where legesis unlocks the day.

08:12 — a retainer lands.

A partner forwards a signed mandate. Elena sends back a retainer template from her template library; the client signs before breakfast, with every consent disclosure recorded.

11:40 — an NDA dispute surfaces.

Opposing counsel asks for proof the NDA was signed. Elena exports the Evidence Certificate in two clicks — hash-chained, self-authenticating, FRE 902-compliant.

14:15 — bulk settlement offers.

A class settlement needs 340 releases signed. Elena loads the CSV; legesis fans out 340 envelopes, each with its own audit trail, in under a minute.

17:28 — matter close-out.

Closing a matter used to mean gathering signed PDFs from six inboxes. Now the matter’s envelopes live in one workspace; export is a single zip with the Evidence Bundle included.

The outcome

The firm's signing pipeline, finally auditable.

Every envelope traces back to a matter, every matter to a partner, every signature to a verifiable trail. No more lost PDFs, no more 'is this the signed version?'

legesis is the only signing tool I've used that a litigator and a procurement team both love. The evidence certificate alone saved us forty billable hours last quarter.
