How to Redact Court Documents

Ready to discover how to redact court documents? In today’s post we will show you how to fully redact your documents to completely remove sensitive information - and it only takes 5 steps.

What is Redaction?

Before we jump into how to redact court documents, let’s quickly cover what redaction is. The meaning of redaction, according to the Law Dictionary (thelawdictionary.org), is a document that has been modified, edited or revised and any confidential or sensitive information removed from it.

When it comes to redaction you need to be careful that you are not simply masking the text in your document - especially when you’re using electronic documents. True redaction means that the confidential information is completely removed.

If you need to redact your court documents then look no further than Bundledocs. Here’s how it works…
