Lawyer email signature — free templates & examples
A lawyer's email signature has more to do than a typical one — it identifies the firm, sets expectations, and protects privilege if a message is misdirected. Below is a free, ready-to-use signature designed specifically for solo practitioners, partners and associates. Personalize it in your browser, then copy it into Gmail, Outlook or Apple Mail.

What to include in a legal email signature
- Name and title — Attorney at Law, Partner, Associate, Of Counsel.
- Firm name in a serif face — it's the brand mark for the practice.
- Direct phone and email, not the main switchboard where possible.
- Firm address — matters for jurisdiction and for physical mail.
- Bar admissions when your practice crosses state or national lines.
- Confidentiality / privilege notice below the signature, visually separated.
Common questions
Do I need a confidentiality disclaimer?
Most firms include one to preserve attorney-client privilege if an email is misdirected. Keep it short and plain-language — walls of legalese hurt readability without adding legal weight.
Should I add a headshot?
Optional. Litigators and transactional attorneys usually skip it in favor of firm-forward branding; consumer-facing practices (family, immigration, personal injury) often include one for trust.
Will it render correctly in Outlook?
Yes — Wren's HTML is table-based with inline styles, which is what Outlook's Word-based rendering engine expects. See the Outlook setup guide.
