E-Sign

BKS runs its own e-signature platform, so engagement letters, W-9s, payroll authorizations, and client agreements are signed inside the ecosystem with a verifiable audit trail rather than routed through a third-party subscription.

Questions

E-Sign: common questions

Is an electronic signature legally valid?

Electronic signatures are recognized under the federal E-SIGN Act and state UETA adoptions when consent and intent are captured properly. Capturing that is exactly what the audit trail is for.

Why not just use a third-party e-signature service?

BKS built and runs its own platform so signing is part of the workflow that produced the document, rather than a separate system with a separate bill and a separate record.
