Can director of the real estate agency sign the lease agreement with no witness?
Generally in the United States, if the signing of a document requires a witness, it should state that it needs to be notarized. To have a document notorized is to have a Notary Public confirm by his/her seal that he/she witnessed the signing of the document and confirmed the signer's identification. (So never sign a document before taking it to be notarized, because the Notary Public has to witness the signing.) (Sorry, I don't know how or if it is done differently outside the US.)
Does a witness to a signature on a legal document need to know what is in the document?
You are a witness to the signing of a signature on the document and nothing else, (unless it is stated that you are a witness to something else involved with the legal matter directly above where you will sign the document as the witness.)You do not have to know what the document says, what or who it is about, or anything else about the document in order to be a witness to the signing of the document.You are only a witness to the 'original signature' that was signed on the document and could be asked to verify the original signature, as well as your own signature, by anyone involved in the legal process.I would recommend you Do Not ever sign as a witness unless you are certain the signature is valid and it was signed in front of you.
