How to use Family Law Software and Custody X Change together

Since 2022, Family Law Software and Custody X Change have collaborated to simplify the process of determining a child support amount.

Once a Custody X Change professional subscriber enables integration, they're given a code to paste into Family Law Software.

Immediately upon entering the code, the professional sees their clients' essential information, such as parenting time and children's birth dates, reflected in their Family Law Software account.

This reduces the need to switch back and forth between accounts and re-enter information, which means less room for error and less time wasted.

It also means that changes to a custody schedule are reflected automatically in your child support calculation.

Family Law Software needs overnight totals; Custody X Change provides them

Family Law Software calculates child support using state-specific formulas, many of which require parenting time totals.

The Custody X Change online app provides those parenting time totals. For any custody schedule entered, it calculates how much time the children spend with each of their parents — by overnight or by hour. Custody X Change can instantly calculate the parenting time for any period, accounting for holidays and special occasions.

How Family Law Software helps legal professionals

Family Law Software helps legal professionals prepare divorce documents, including child support documents. It features child support calculators for over 20 states, as well as calculators for alimony, exemptions, property division, pensions, tax credits and more.

Using accurate numbers makes all the difference in a divorce or custody case. Rather than rely on human calculation and outdated methods, Family Law Software turns raw numbers into the information your clients want. It provides family law professionals with methods to maximize their clients' financial situations.

Family Law Software comes in three editions. You can download a free trial to test out its child support and other family law calculations. Once you purchase the program, you have a money-back guarantee for the next three months.

How Custody X Change helps legal professionals

Custody X Change has helped 60,000+ parents and family law professionals create parenting plans, calculate parenting time and improve co-parenting since 2005.

One of our most popular tools is the parenting time calculator because:

  • Counting parenting time is tedious due to holidays, school breaks and one-time changes.
  • Human error is all too common in math.
  • Parenting time shifts every time you make changes to the schedule.
  • Parenting time is one of the most fought-over parts of a custody case.
  • Clients expect precise numbers and appreciate detailed parenting time reports.

Custody X Change solves these problems with a calculator that updates as you create and make changes to a custody schedule. It produces a color-coded parenting time report you can export or print.

Correct parenting time totals are critical to getting a fair and accurate child support amount. Custody X Change delivers accurate totals every time.

The app also includes other tools for legal professionals, like a calendar for tracking deviations from a parenting schedule, an interactive parenting plan template, and the ability to link accounts with clients or colleagues.
