"L.S." near the signature line of a legal document stands for locus sigilli, which is Latin for "place of the seal." Long ago formal legal documents had to be sealed with a wax seal to be deemed valid. The seal was a symbol of prestige, as wealthy persons had the most ornate seals. That practice has generally been abandoned, but raised seals are still used by notaries public, courts and certain government agencies in certain instances. Since private seals are no longer in use, the symbol, "L.S.," takes the place of the seal and has the same effect as a seal on a document that would have required a seal.
