PDF Tools Every Legal Professional Needs
Law firms run on PDFs. From contracts to discovery documents, these free tools keep legal workflows efficient and secure.
Legal professionals deal with PDFs more than almost anyone — contracts, briefs, discovery documents, and court filings. Efficiency and accuracy are critical.
Merge Related Documents
Combine exhibits, affidavits, and briefs into a single filing with the Merge PDF tool.
Split Large Discovery Productions
Discovery often involves thousands of pages. The %%Split PDF tool|/tools/split-pdf%% extracts relevant sections for review.
Remove Hidden Metadata
Before sharing documents with opposing counsel, use Remove Metadata to strip author names, editing time, and document history.
Flatten Fillable Forms
After filling a court form, use Flatten PDF to make the content permanent and non-editable.
Add Page Numbers to Briefs
Court filings require proper pagination. The %%Page Numbers tool|/tools/page-numbers%% adds them precisely.
Sanitize Documents for External Sharing
The %%Sanitize PDF tool|/tools/sanitize-pdf%% removes JavaScript, links, and embedded files that could pose security risks.
All processing is local — sensitive legal documents never leave your computer.
