We are often asked this question, but ultimately it depends on the court's requirements and personal preference. The most commonly chosen option by our clients is the 2-hole Acco prong fastener, as it fulfills the binding requirements and allows for easy addition or removal of pages without having to break the bind and use a new one, keeping the document intact.

If you have multiple boxes of documents and you need to estimate the total number of pages, the following are typical page counts per container:

Legal/Letter (Bankers) Box: 2,000 - 2,800 pages
Long Bankers/Transfer File Box: 4,500 - 5,000 pages
Vertical File Drawer 18”: 3,000 - 3,600 pages


Vertical File Drawer 24”: 4,500 - 5,000 pages
Lateral File Drawer 36”: 7,000 - 7,500 pages
Lateral File Drawer 48”: 9,000 - 9,600 pages


While the estimates provided can give you a rough idea of the total number of pages in your containers, it's important to keep in mind that they are general approximations. The actual number of pages may vary depending on various factors such as paper thickness, double-sided pages, the presence of folders, and document binding.

When requesting binder creation after uploading exhibits for production, please provide the following instructions:

1. Client Matter or Name: Specify the client matter or name for billing purposes.
2. Number of Sets: Clearly indicate the exact number of sets of binders required.
3. Production Instructions: Provide thorough instructions for the production process, such as specifying whether the pages should be printed single-sided or double-sided, and whether they should be printed in full color or black & white. If only certain exhibits require color, please indicate which ones.
4. Litigation Tabs: Specify the type of tabs required, such as plain side-numbered tabs, letter tabs, or custom tabs.
5. Deadline and Delivery Instructions: Provide a true deadline for when the binders are needed, along with delivery instructions, if applicable.
6. Shipping Labels: If shipping is required, please provide pre-paid shipping labels.

Being detailed and clear in your instructions will help ensure that the binders are created accurately and meet your specific requirements.

To ensure that your documents are bates stamped and printed in the desired order, a recommended method is to use file name padding. File name padding involves inserting a three- or four-digit number at the beginning of each file name, which helps keep the files in a systematic and organized manner. For instance, the first file could have '0001'; at the beginning of the file name, while the 200th file would have '0200' at the beginning of the file name, and so on. This method helps maintain the intended order of the documents throughout the bates stamping and printing process.
