Just want to make sure. There shouldn't be a problem if a client scans and emails me a copy of their signed and dated engagement letter. Or do any of you insist on receiving the original signed and dated copy?

I know, dumb question, but I am curious. Thanks.

Majority of mine are e-signed

I would expect an e-signed EL would have the same effect as a signed and dated scanned copy? Perhaps not. The e-signed copy can be traced back to the sender.

Anyone see a problem with a scanned and emailed signed and dated engagement letter?

[sjrcpa]

I do not.
Even when I get signed paper ones I scan them and shred the paper.

All of mine are electronically signed. There is an audit trail, which in theory helps.
