eWitness as per the UK legal definition
Legalesign was the first to market based on guidance from the Law Society, and provides the leading eWitness solution for the UK.
You can opt for 'in-session' witnessing that forces the witness to be in the presence of the signatory, or for remote witnessing (as defined by His Majesty's Land Registry).
While other providers approximate a witness feature as if they were signatories, this is unsatisfactory to meet many normal witness requirements. For example, restricting a witness's access to the rest of your contract. Legalesign provides a complete witness function.

We Are Fetching
I’d spent hours on other e-signing platforms trawling through customer support pdfs on witness statements and couldn’t find what I needed. In the end, I changed platforms because it was too difficult for the user. I instantly liked Legalesign. It is affordable and includes a lot of features in its trial, so I had a good chance to see how it worked.
The shareholders’ agreements had 20 pages and needed to be signed by multiple people, ten in all, and I liked that I could do this online with them. The idea of taking one document to each of my individual investors and requiring them to have an independent witness, pinning them all down at the same time, wasn’t even conceivable. And when I needed to speak to someone at Legalesign, nothing was too much trouble. Andreea in customer service has been most impressive. I would say that the service Legalesign provides is great.
