The aforementioned law inserts §4 in article 784 of the Code of Civil Procedure, with the provision that: “In executive titles constituted or certified by electronic means, any type of electronic signature provided for by law is permitted, with the signature of witnesses being waived when its integrity is verified by a signature provider”.

This legal determination represents a reduction in bureaucracy in the execution of legal transactions and follows the case law on the subject.

A very important subject for the activities of our clients and our office.
