The usual reason to merge a legal document PDF is party details, dates or defined terms that change between drafts.
Merging keeps fonts, links and form fields intact instead of flattening everything into images, provided the tool combines rather than re-renders.

Edit a PDFSteps to merge a legal document PDF
Open the first document, then insert the others in the order you want them.
Drag pages in the page view to fine-tune the order and rotate anything scanned sideways.
Delete blank pages the scanner added and duplicate any page you need twice.
Export the combined file, compressing images if the result is large.
What to watch out for on a legal document
With this kind of document, typeface consistency matters — a clause in a different font invites questions.
One caution worth stating plainly: record every amendment so the other side can see it.
Why the result holds up
Doing the tidying before export means writing the file once rather than three times.
