Email signatures for lawyers
A forwarded case email should still identify the lawyer, firm and jurisdiction of practice. Link to your firm biography and use confidentiality wording supplied by the firm, keeping client names and case references out of the reusable signature.
Fictional examples. Replace sample credentials and licence numbers with your own verified details.

Questions for lawyers
What should lawyers put first?
Lead with your name, then your role. Include bar admission jurisdiction and firm-approved confidentiality wording where it helps recipients identify you.
Which link belongs in a lawyer signature?
Use a link to your firm biography. Label the destination clearly and check it before pasting the signature into your mail client.
