When you select days and times in your custody calendar, the choices appear in writing in your parenting plan. Now you don't have to figure out how to word a schedule so it addresses holidays, school breaks and normal days. You can also attach the visual calendar, which judges often appreciate.

Edit quickly and easily

Your plan can be edited both in the app and in programs like Microsoft Word. The flexibility is especially helpful when a judge has preferences about details like phrasing or spacing. Easy editing also proves invaluable when you need to propose a modification to a plan.
