E-Signature Packets

Updated yesterday

E-Signature Packets let your clients sign documents, fill out intake forms, schedule appointments, and submit payments. All in one shareable link.

What Are E-Signature Packets?

E-Signature Packets are a new asset type that let you collect everything you need from a client in one link.
Packets combine:

  • Signature Documents

  • Custom Forms

  • Booking Requests

  • Payment Gateway

This makes it incredibly easy for clients to sign, submit information, pay, and schedule, all in one place.

You can send packets directly to a matter, or add the shareable link on your website (such as in a “Get Started” button) to help drive faster intake and client conversion.

Getting Started with E-Signature Packets

This new asset can be started under Docs & Forms > E-Signature Packets

  • Click “Create New E-Signature Packet.”

  • Select a Custom Form to start the packet.

    • This form must include an email field for any signers on the signature document.

    • If you’re adding additional signers, their email must also be captured in Relationship blocks.

  • Choose a Signature Document for signing.

    • You can assign signer roles based on the custom form selected in the first custom form.

  • (Optional) Add a Second Form to follow the signature document.

Sending E-Signature Packets

From Docs & Forms > E-Signature Packets, you can click the "View" icon to open a blank E-Signature Packet. This link can be added to your website so leads can fill out your intake form and retain simultaneously.

E-Signature Packet Reminders

To create reminders for your E-Signature Packets, you'll first need to create a Reminder email template in Marketing > Emails. From here, you will select E-Signature Packet Reminder:

Once your have your email template created, you will head to Automations > Reminders > Signature Packets. Once you create new, you will be able to:

  • Select your E-signature Packet Template

  • Select your Reminder Email Template

  • Configure an SMS message

  • Set your reminder timeframe

  • Determine additional options to stop these reminders

Reminder Timing Note: Reminders are based on when the packet is first sent to the primary signer. Any additional signers follow the same reminder schedule. This means an additional signer could receive a reminder shortly after getting the packet if the primary signer completes the first form close to the reminder time.

Automating Based on E-Signature Packet Completion

In automations, you can use E-Signature Packet Completed as entry conditions and exit conditions:

When you choose this condition, you'll also decide which E-Signature packet Template you want the trigger based on:


FAQs

If I update a document after sending a packet, will those changes appear?

Updates made to the signature document will not appear if the packet has already been sent and is still pending, you’ll need to send a new E-Signature Packet.
Updates to included forms will appear, though the matter may need to refresh first.

Will forms completed inside a packet trigger Form Filled notifications or automations?

No. Forms completed within an E-Signature Packet are treated as part of the packet and do not trigger Form Filled notifications or automations. Likewise, signing the document inside a packet will not trigger automations tied to the signature document alone.
