Use a Microsoft Template to Create Legal Pleading Paper With Numbers Down the Side (And Budgets, Resumes, Marketing Materials, etc.)

Some courts require old-school “pleading paper” with the line numbers down the left-hand side of the page. It can be very tricky to create this on your own. Why spend the time when there’s a free pleading paper template you can download! Check this out for a template. Although it says it’s for Office 2013, it worked for me in 2010. While you’re there, check out the other templates. There are hundreds of templates that have been posted for free download. They’re organized by category to make it easier, and you’ll find templates for both personal and business use.
