A City solicitor has invented free software that aims to make producing PDF court bundles hassle-free for lawyers and litigants in person (LiPs) alike.
Tris Sherliker, an IP lawyer at City firm Bird & Bird, developed BunTool as a personal project.
It is free to use, saves time – an estimated hour per bundle – and offers users complete privacy as the bundle is created locally without having to upload data.
BunTool was launched in March, and is already being used law firms, barristers’ chambers and LiPs.
Mr Sherliker told Legal Futures that it was about to create its 1,000th bundle less than a month since going live. “It has grown much faster than I expected.”
The bundles comply with the requirements of courts and tribunals in England and Wales, including how pages are formatted and how they scan and work on screen.
Mr Sherliker says: “For lawyers and paralegals, it saves up to an hour per bundle. For litigants in person, it saves days of work.
