The durable protection of a legal paper binder
Legal binders perform the important function of preserving and protecting important documents. A legal paper binder usually features durable covers made with rigid plastic, which is sometimes reinforced with steel corners for added longevity. Inside a ring binder are lever-arches with rings that open and close easily. This also also allows for smooth page turning and the insertion and removal of sheets without tearing. A faux leather legal binder has an elegant look for shelf display. This creates a pleasing visual effect, especially in the office of a physician or attorney.
Types of legal-size documents
There are a variety of documents typically printed on legal size paper that require a legal binder:
- Real estate documents
- Sales contracts
- Financial ledgers
Some 3-inch legal binders hold documents printed on legal size paper but in a horizontal, landscape format. For longer documents, there are binders with larger capacities or even packs of binders for holding large numbers of related documents such as court depositions.
Additional binder accessories
Organizing documents inside a 3 ring legal binder is easy with binder accessories such as tabs and dividers. Dividers and tabs are available in a range of styles and colors, offering options for sorting documents in order of date or alphabetically. There are also sheet protectors for preserving important documents. Binder label holders and inserts are available to add to binders that don’t already have this convenient feature.
Customizing a legal binder
Many binders allow for customized labeling, making them easier to organize on a shelf or inside a box or filing cabinet. They are also easier to find and retrieve when needed. Spine pockets offer a place to put a printed or hand-written label with information like date ranges or client names. Some binders also have clear plastic overlays on the covers for inserting sheets of paper.
