Hello I wanted to know how I can use my Adobe Acobat Reader to legally sign a document. I need to send important documents and want to be sure my signature will be valid in a court of law. Thank you

It depends, of course, on the country you are in.

Whether or not a digital signature is considered legal depends on your location, first of all! This is something to ask a lawyer, not a bunch of people on a public forum.
