Digital Trial Binders
Designed by a Trial Lawyer, Built for Litigators

Align was founded by Sam Davidoff while he was a partner at the litigation firm Williams & Connolly. Sam spent two decades preparing cases with binders. He understands how case binders work and how to make them better for the digital age. Align is that better way.

Why a trial lawyer built Align

And what makes it different

Sam Davidoff
Founder & CEO

"I spent 20 years organizing complex litigation with inadequate digital tools. I watched paralegals work 14-hour days before trial, printing and reprinting binders because of last-minute changes. I hauled document boxes through airports. I knew litigators needed digital trial preparation—but it had to work exactly like the paper binders we trust. That's why I built Align."

“You’re not replacing your binder. You’re enhancing it.”

How Align's digital trial binder platform

is different from other legal software

Built by litigators

We don't guess what trial lawyers need—we know because we've lived it. Every feature in Align solves a real problem we faced in actual cases.

Do one thing exceptionally well

We don't try to be a document management system, case management platform, or litigation suite. Align does digital trial binders—and does them better than anyone.

No learning curve

If you know how to use a trial binder, you already know how to use Align. Tabs, highlights, notes, and sticky flags work exactly like paper—just digital and always with you.

Works the way lawyers work

We didn't impose someone else's idea of workflow on lawyers. We built software that adapts to how you already organize cases—by issue, by witness, by chronology, or however it makes sense to you.

“For lawyers who’ve spent decades with physical binders, Align makes the digital transition intuitive. It works the way our brains expect to handle information.”
