Family Law Attorneys

Attorneys use Custody X Change as a professional tool in their child custody cases to:

  • Save time making parenting plans for clients;
  • Find out the timeshare percentage calculations for various parenting time schedules; and
  • Provide visual documents to clients, other attorneys, and the court.
Save Time Making Plans

Custody X Change lets you quickly create a parenting plan for your clients. With the software, you can easily make a parenting time schedule and add provisions to the plan. You can save various templates for schedules and plans and then when you make a new plan you can simply make the adjustments needed--without having to start from the beginning.

The software allows you to easily add the following in your schedules:

  • A repeating cycle of parenting time,
  • School break and other vacation schedules,
  • Holiday time, and
  • Special events.

Along with the schedule, you can include parenting provisions in your agreements and plans. The software has a list of provisions you can include, and you can also add you own, custom provisions.

You can export your plans to Word, Excel, and PDF and add or change anything in the wording of the documents.

Timeshare Percentage Calculations

Custody X Change has a timeshare percentage calculator that shows how much time each parent has with the children. As you create a parenting time schedule, the software shows you the percentage of time, the percentage of overnights, and the number of hours the mother and father have with the children.

Attorneys use the timeshare percentage calculations to:

  • Ensure that your clients pay or receive the correct amount of child support;
  • Look at options for the parenting time schedule;
  • Make adjustments to a schedule to change the child support payments;
  • Print a report that shows the detailed breakdown of parenting time; and
  • Show a client, another attorney, or the court the timeshare percentage report;

More and more states are requiring that attorneys provide an accurate timeshare percentage calculation for child support. Custody X Change allows you to quickly figure out the exact timeshare percentage for any schedule. You can then use this calculation in the court and with your client.


Provide Visual Documents

As you create a parenting plan with Custody X Change, you can print the following visual documents:

  • The parenting time schedule: you can print a calendar (for as many years as you want) that shows the parenting time and you can print a document that has a description of the schedule.
  • A timeshare percentage report: this report shows the breakdown of how much time each parent has with the children.
  • The parenting provisions: a list of the provisions that you've included in the plan.
  • The entire parenting plan with all of the components.

The documents from Custody X Change help you:

  • Model suggested plans to your client;
  • Give a visual calendar to your client so they can see the parenting time schedule;
  • Provide your client, another attorney, or a judge with a copy of the parenting plan;
  • Reduce misunderstandings as you use the documents to explain a parenting plan;
  • Explain a plan to another attorney in negotiation; and
  • Present a parenting plan to a judge in the courtroom.

All of the documents can be printed directly from the software, or you can export them to Word, Excel, and PDF. This allows you to easily make any changes and/or email them for easy communication.
