Question: Does my signature need to be witnessed if I am signing an agreement?
Answer:Your signature is usually required to be witnessed if you are signing an agreement as it helps verify the signing of the document, particularly if there is an issue later on with the contract. Other documents are easier to verify if signed by a secretary or a director of a company for example. Depending on the nature of the document, as an individual, you may also have differing signature requirements which may be of a higher standard than witnessing the document.
