Clients judge a law firm on detail. A clean, consistent signature tells them the same care goes into their file.
What to include
- Your name, title and firm
- The jurisdictions you are admitted in, if your bar expects it
- A direct line and the firm's main number
- The office address, if you see clients in person
- A confidentiality notice, kept short and in small type

Banner idea
Use the banner for a new practice area, a published article or a seminar date, not for a hard sell.

Should lawyers add a confidentiality disclaimer?
Many firms do. Keep it to two short lines in small grey text under the signature, so it does not crowd out your contact details.
Can a law firm use the same signature for everyone?
Yes. Pick one design and give each person their own name, title and direct line, so the firm looks like one firm.
