I am not a lawyer, but I have written and signed a lot of contracts and other legally binding agreements. In general, a written / signed / dated agreement is legally binding. The real question lies in what it is you are agreeing to according to the language of the contract, and this is where the involvement of a lawyer can be important: The oft-derided "legalese" that fills many contracts (such as the yahoo privacy terms you agreed to) clearly defines a variety of terms and circumstances regarding the scope and limitations of the agreement, as well as conditions under which the agreement can and cannot be terminated.
Unless (1) you are a lawyer or (2) have extensive experience working with a lawyer's help in developing and reading the type of contracts / agreements in question, then you are very likely to create and/or sign an agreement which has some unintended consequences or side effects.
If you are working on something fairly straightforward, then there are books from publishers such as NOLO Press that contain various boilerplate agreements and conceptual explanations of their use.

Yes, it is effective if so indicated on the paper. Make sure that it is in the by-laws of the company. I would recommend getting it notarized with all parties involved present so that later no partner can come back and say it was changed. Hope this helps.

yes. The only thing a lawyer was needed for in this agreement was to shape the terms to protect his client's interests.

As long as it is noterized, it's fine... but you should get a lawyer to look over it so that they can currect any wording that maybe used as a loop hole later.
But getting it noterized is normally enough in the USA.
A lawyer is just a plus (and the lawyer can noterize it for you) .

yes. a signed document is binding, though its unwise to sign one without a lawyer to advise.

YES, it's a contract and it's a legal binding document.

You heard wrong. Seek legal advice, not over the internet.
