This is exactly what I do. I have an amendment on my contract about intellectual property being owned by the company changed from "while under employment" to "using company equipment in employed hours". They sent me two copies they had signed, I modified both with the change, signed it and scanned the contract.
The returned copy was accepted by HR via email (not sure if they ever read it or not)
What will be interesting is if this ever gets to be tested as not ever sheet in the contract was signed.
- hnick 3y agoIn Australia it's common to initial pages to indicate they have been read, and next to altered terms specifically. Both parties write their initials in such cases, so you don't need a signature on each page. I don't think it has a direct legal basis, but like most things to do with contracts it builds the picture of intent and acceptance and understanding of what they were getting into.
- oefnak 3y agoYou changed the document after they signed it? If you didn't also remove their signature, that's forgery.
- Eisenstein 3y agoDoesn't sound like forgery. Whether it will hold up in court is iffy. If you are not a lawyer I would be more hesitant to state your legal opinions as fact. * https://www.adamsdrafting.com/making-sneaky-changes-to-a-contract-before-signing-it/ https://www.adamsdrafting.com/making-sneaky-changes-to-a-con...
