Electronic signatures.
On your hardware.

Sign and Return is self-hosted e-signature software built for solo attorneys and small law firms. Your clients’ documents never touch a third-party cloud.

Private by design.

Run on your own machine or server. You control your data.

Flat annual price.

Unlimited documents. No per-envelope or per-user fees.

Built for legal practice.

Engagements, authorizations, releases, and consents — not wills or deeds.

Badge: your data stays with you

Self-hosted. You run it. You own it. You keep it.

No vendor cloud. No surprise terms changes. No lock-in.

Five benefits that matter.

Docs stay on your hardware

No vendor holds them, no vendor can be breached, no vendor changes its terms.

Flat annual price, unlimited documents

No per-envelope metering. No per-seat monthly billing. Save thousands every year.

Defensible audit trail

Tamper-evident certificate PDF with independent verification. Append-only audit log. Explicit e-consent captured.

No accounts for signers

They get a link, open it, and sign. Single-use links that expire. No signup, no app, no password.

Your data is never held hostage

If a license lapses, the software goes read-only. Everything remains visible and exportable.

What Sign and Return isn’t.

It’s not for wills, codicils, powers of attorney, or deeds. Those require physical presence, wet signatures, witnesses, or notarization in most states.
We built this for engagements, authorizations, releases, and consents.
