The Global Lawyer Finder connects you with vetted attorneys licensed in your jurisdiction at no charge. It is available on every plan. Use it when a matter requires licensed legal counsel beyond what an AI platform can provide.

Legal Chain creates a SHA-256 cryptographic fingerprint of your document and anchors it permanently to the Polygon L2 network or Ethereum Mainnet. This creates a tamper-evident record with a timestamp. If anyone modifies the document after anchoring, the hash changes and the alteration becomes immediately detectable.

Blockchain anchoring provides tamper-evident proof of a document's contents and timestamp at the time of anchoring. It is not a substitute for proper execution of a contract. Legal enforceability depends on the laws of your jurisdiction and how the document was signed.

Polygon L2 anchoring is available as an add-on at $0.10 per document. Ethereum Mainnet notarisation is $9.99 per document plus applicable gas fees. Polygon L2 notarisation is included in the Platinum plan. All anchoring add-ons are flat rate with no annual discount.

Polygon L2 anchoring offers very low gas fees and fast confirmation while still providing cryptographic tamper-evidence. Ethereum Mainnet anchoring uses the primary Ethereum network for maximum verifiability and is best for high-value or regulatory-sensitive documents where the highest possible verification standard is required.
