HAPPILY Used By THOUSANDS OF LEGAL PROFESSIONALS ACROSS ALL 50 STATE§
HOW IT WORK§
Flexibility
Switch into legal mode with a single keystroke to access over 35 functions that legal professionals use every day. Switch back to use LegalBoard as a standard keyboard.
Speed
Insert a § or ¶ symbol in Word or email with a single key. Add a comment or a footnote, and toggle back to the text. Insert common terms like “id.” Turn track changes on/off, and much more.
Flow
Touch your mouse less. Hit less keys. Stay in the flow. Let the keys do the work for you. And end the hassle and frustration of hotkeys and short-cuts.
don't take our word for it...
"But I have hotkeys for that..."
Here's the thing: hitting two or three keys is always going to be slower and more distracting than hitting one key.
Setting them all up is a pain. And the LegalBoard never gets reset.
Plus, many of the LegalBoard functions (including the § symbol) also work in email.
The LegalBoard has over 35 preset legal functions; we doubt you have that many hotkeys.

I bought it for my daughter who is a second year student. She says once she got used to the extra keys it saved a lot of time and effort.

Time Saver
Albert G. on Jun 27, 2018
Two of the five Analyst have already mentioned time saving on usage of the legal keyboard. We will continue to monitor.
Really like the insert footnote, insert comment, and track changes buttons.
SCM. on May 20, 2019
This is a good keyboard. Good feel, responsive, etc., but obviously I got it for the legal functions. Use the section (§§§§§) and paragraph (¶¶¶¶¶) symbol buttons all the time. My other favorite buttons are the one that allows you to turn on and off track changes with a single button, one that allows you to insert a comment, and the one that allows you to insert a footnote. All very handy.
SuperCool

Why didn't someone think of this sooner??!! Like when I was at work until 3 a.m. typing briefs!!! With this awesome keyboard, maybe I could have been home before midnight! : ) I may have to start taking mine home every night - the associates are eyeing it with envy!! Great idea! I love it.
so helpful
Emma T. on May 04, 2018
love this LegalPad, it saves me so much time and energy. 100% recommend!
Best Thing Since Track Changes
Michael M. on Apr 27, 2018
The Legal Keyboard is a game changer...All the commands that the keyboard has are incredibly helpful and it truly makes drafting a legal brief faster, and probably most importantly less of a hassle. You can concentrate on drafting and less on figuring out how to get the right command in. Overall, wonderful product!
Great shortcuts and very helpful!
Cynthia B. on Apr 25, 2018
Well-designed and very helpful. We will be ordering them for the entire legal team!
Must have for all lawyers!
Eric Hatchell on Apr 02, 2018
Sure you can memorize Alt-0167 (§) or Alt-0182 (¶) – but isn’t it easier if you do not have to? This keyboard saves you time – and your clients money. What’s not to like?

WHO ARE WE?
The dorky guy in the suit? That would be Brian H. Potts, Pro-Boards’ founder, himself a partner at the large national law firm Perkins Coie.
The team at Pro-Boards LLC is composed of lawyers and engineers. Like you, the Pro-Boards’ lawyers have spent long days and nights writing briefs for clients. And, maybe also like you, we’ve wished for a keyboard that could keep up with the speed of our thinking.
We grew tired of having to look for the section symbol and of having to type the same words over and over. So, we brought some legal minds together – and teamed up with our engineer friends – and the LegalBoard was born.
