IT asked me to map e-signature permissions across the firm—partners, associates, and paralegals all need different levels. I don't want unauthorized signings or bottlenecks. Recommend a permission matrix that balances speed and control, note who must retain sign-off authority for retainer agreements, and give a short explanatory note for attorneys about why these limits protect them and the client.

The real tasks

1 of them
We're rolling out firm-wide e-signature workflows and I need to set permissions so only authorized attorneys send documents.

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
