Merge PDFs for Court Filing — Bundle Legal Documents Correctly
Overview
E-filing systems for courts and legal tribunals typically require all exhibits and supporting documents bundled into a single PDF. PDF Mavericks merges multiple PDFs in the exact order you need — cover page first, then pleadings, then numbered exhibits. Drag to reorder, merge in one click, and compress the output to meet any file size limit your e-filing portal enforces.
How to Use This Tool
Upload all your legal PDFs — main pleading, cover sheet, each numbered exhibit. Drag them into filing order. Click Merge and download the combined document. If the combined file exceeds your court portal's upload limit, run it through the Compress tool to reduce the size without affecting text legibility.

Merge PDF →Frequently Asked Questions
Can I control the page order when merging legal documents?
Yes. After uploading, drag and drop the files into your required order — main document first, then exhibits in numerical order — before clicking Merge.
Will the merged PDF be accepted by e-filing systems?
Yes. The output is a standard PDF/A-compatible document. It contains no watermarks, no restrictions, and no third-party branding.
What if my combined legal PDF is too large to upload to court?
After merging, run the combined PDF through the Compress tool. Use Low or Medium compression to shrink the file while keeping all text fully legible for the court record.
