Enclosed Herewith Please Find An Agreed Order In The Above Referenced Matter Form
Use a Enclosed Herewith Please Find An Agreed Order In The Above Referenced Matter template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What this agreed order form does
This form records that parties have reached agreement on a matter identified in the referenced case or proceeding. It commonly contains the matter reference, agreed terms, party information, signature sections, and dates, although the exact fields depend on the issuing court or legal office. In signNow, a user uploads the document, reviews or adds fillable fields, assigns parties, sends it for review, and stores the completed copy with an audit trail. ESIGN and UETA generally recognize electronic records, but court orders and official court filings are excluded from ESIGN, so court acceptance must be confirmed.
Legal standing of an agreed order
An agreed order may be evidentiary when the parties demonstrate intent, consent, attribution, and reliable record retention, subject to court rules and applicable state law. ESIGN and UETA generally support electronic transactions, but ESIGN excludes court orders and official court filings, as well as wills and family-law decrees; confirm the receiving court’s requirements before electronic execution.
Audiences and document workflows
Legal services
Litigators can complete agreed orders, settlement-related documents, and signature pages after confirming the court’s filing rules. Role-based routing helps direct documents to counsel, clients, or authorized representatives without changing substantive court language.
Legal operations
Legal operations teams can coordinate contracts, approvals, and supporting consent forms connected to an agreed-order matter. They can preserve the signed document and audit trail while separating preparation access from final administrative review.
Who uses agreed order workflows
Attorneys, legal operations teams, and authorized business representatives use this workflow to coordinate review, signatures, and records for agreed orders.
Solo litigators can prepare an agreed order, route it to opposing counsel, and preserve a complete signing history for the matter file. Small law firms can reuse approved agreed-order templates while controlling signer order, access permissions, and document retention across active matters. Enterprise legal departments can connect court-related approval workflows with existing systems while requiring administrators to review filing and signature requirements.
These tasks are executed by both individual contributors and centralized administrators depending on organizational policy and required controls.

Business includes templates, audit trails, and legally binding eSignatures at $8 per user per month with annual billing. For an agreed order, confirm that every required party is assigned before sending and verify that the receiving court accepts electronic execution.
Business Premium adds bulk send at $15 per user per month with annual billing. Bulk sending may help distribute substantially identical documents, but each agreed order should be checked for matter-specific terms and signer assignments before dispatch.
signNow supports ESIGN and UETA compliance, including audit trails and electronic records. However, ESIGN excludes court orders and official court filings. Ask the relevant court or clerk whether this agreed order may be electronically signed and filed.
If a signer cannot access the assigned fields, review the signer role, field ownership, and email address in the document setup. Reassign missing fields before resending, then preserve the updated audit trail with the final agreed-order record.
Enterprise adds advanced signer authentication, while the Site License can add SSO and full API access. Select authentication based on the matter’s confidentiality and the receiving authority’s requirements, rather than assuming a platform setting satisfies court identity rules.
The completed document and audit trail should be retained according to the matter’s applicable court, state, contractual, or organizational policy. signNow provides document history and audit-trail capabilities, but it does not determine the court’s required retention period.
