How to Endorse a Check

How to Endorse a Check

Occasionally, we will receive checks that are not made out to Gravis. If we receive a check that should be deposited into our bank but has a name other than "Gravis Law" on the pay to line, the recipient can transfer the check from their name to Gravis Law.

Example: Payment for a client retainer is written to "Brett Spooner", instead of Gravis Law. Brett would then need to endorse the back of the check saying this check actually belongs to Gravis. 

How to Endorse the back of the check: 
Line 1: Signature (Original Payee)
Line 2: Pay to the Order of
Line 3: Third Party Name (Generally, this will be Gravis Law PLLC)
