Legal Question in Business Law in Massachusetts

Re: can a signature ever be null and void?

There is not enough information to answer the question. Specifically, why did you sign the agreement? Were you simple a witness for the agreement? Are you a party to the agreement? What type of agreement? Some documents require a signature of a witness to attest to another party's signature. In other words, to attest to the fact that the other party is who they say they are. For example, a will requires a witness signature that the person who's will it is signed the will in the prescence of the witness.

Re: can a signature ever be null and void?

You should consult with an attorney so he can review the document and advise you. Most contracts require only the signature of the parties, but there are exceptions for certain kinds of legal documents. The number of business days since signature is unlikely to be relevant (except for certain kinds of consumer transactions), but seeing an attorney today is the safest course.

The Mass Bar Association (and probably your local county bar association) operates a lawyer referral service at no cost to you. You can also look for lawyers on this site or at http://www.martindale.com/xp/Martindale/Lawyer_Locator/Search_Lawyer_Locator/lawyer_search.xml
