Edit the outline, check the tree, then create it. Nothing changes until you press the button.
Case Folder Scaffolder
Define a folder tree as indented text and create it inside a folder you pick, in Chrome and Edge. Other browsers get a ZIP with the same structure. Save the outline as a text template to use again.
Outline
One folder per line. Indent with spaces to nest.
Tree: 12 folders
- Matter name
- 01 Correspondence
- Incoming
- Outgoing
- 02 Pleadings
- 03 Discovery
- Requests
- Responses
- Productions
- 04 Experts
- 05 Exhibits
- 06 Administration
Chrome and Edge write to a folder. Other browsers get the ZIP.
Good to know
- Characters Windows refuses are replaced, and a name containing .. is rejected.
- You see the full tree before anything is created.
- Existing folders are left as they are, and no files are created or changed.
Your files stay on your machine
This tool runs entirely inside your browser tab. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or sent to a server — close the tab and every trace is gone.
These are the free ones — see the full suiteHow big a file can it take?
There is no upload, so there is no upload limit — but the work happens in this tab, which means your browser’s memory is the budget. Nothing here will refuse a file for being large; a big enough one simply gets slow and, eventually, reloads the tab. The figures below are rules of thumb on a desktop browser, not enforced caps. On a phone or tablet, expect a good deal less.
- Folder creation is light. An outline of a few thousand folders is comfortable.
- Very deep trees can reach the Windows path length limit once extracted, whatever this tool allows.
Password-protected PDFs are declined whatever their size — unlock the file first. If a run does die on a long document, splitting it into volumes and working through them one at a time is the reliable way round it.
