Digital signatures in law firms – seamless processes with digital|bar and signotec

Since its founding in 2018, digital|bar has been supporting tax advisors and auditors in the digital transformation of their workflows. Many documents require legally compliant signatures – until now, this often had to be done manually or involved a complex process involving multiple systems. The challenge: to find a uniform, secure, and efficient solution that can be integrated into the existing workflow software collect|bar.

By integrating the signotec Sigma and Delta signature pads and the signoSign/Universal Cloud, documents can be transferred directly from a wide variety of systems (DATEV, Wolters Kluwer, Kanzleiland, Nextcloud, ecoDMS, and many more) into collect|bar and signed electronically.

• Signature fields can be placed flexibly: Documents can be customized individually before signing.
• Advanced and qualified electronic signatures: Clients can use FES or QES, either on-site or remotely.
• Secure, audit-proof storage: Signatures are stored in encrypted form in the document; audit logs and biometric data are available
• for identification or dispute resolution.
• User-friendliness: Both external sending for signature and local signing are intuitive, with little training required.

Thanks to the seamless integration of signotec products, law firms benefit from efficient workflows, media-break-free processes, and legally compliant documentation, while reducing mountains of paper in their offices.

• Seamless digital signatures: locally and remotely
• Seamless integration into collect|bar: processes can be controlled directly from the software
• Increased efficiency: faster document flow, automatic updates
• Legal certainty: FES and QES in accordance with the eIDAS Regulation
• Secure archiving: Audit logs and biometric data included
• Flexible customization: Signature fields, line thickness, color, and edits directly in the document
