Introduction
In light of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, many of us are
having to implement measures that see all or a majority of our
workforces transition to working remotely, we have received a
number of queries regarding the impact that this is likely to have
on closing transactions.
This note provides an overview of the legal framework on
electronic signatures in Jersey and some practical assistance that
we can provide to ensure that your transactions continue to run
smoothly despite the challenges being faced as a result of
restrictions on movement and social distancing measures.
We anticipate that the law and practice in this area will be
fast moving and we will prepare further updates as and when
appropriate to keep you abreast of these developments.
