Document Custody Evidence With a Private Journal

Gathering good evidence for a custody case can feel impossible. How do you show you're a responsible parent?

The Custody X Change journal helps prove your case through simple note-taking. You make quick entries about what happens in your child's life, and the journal formats it for court.

You can customize this with Custody X Change.

Why you should use a parenting journal

A journal helps you:

  • Present professional-looking evidence
  • Prove your co-parent's behavior
  • Document your child's developments
  • Recall important dates

Choose what to print or export

Filter by labels you create, or search by keyword. Then, print or export the organized document that results. For example, you might print all entries labeled "school attendance" or with the keyword "eczema."

Link with your lawyer

Link Custody X Change accounts with your lawyer to let them edit and print your journal. They'll be able to prepare evidence for court quickly, saving you money — and they don't need to subscribe.

Don't worry about the other parent seeing entries

You can customize this with Custody X Change.

If you link accounts with your co-parent, your journal remains hidden from them so you can write freely without causing conflict. If you'd like to share entries, print them or save them as a PDF.

Attach photos and documents

Upload text message screenshots, emails, receipts, medical records, photos and more. Now all your evidence is in one searchable location, with dates and notes to jog your memory.

Make unlimited entries

You can customize this with Custody X Change.

Add as many entries as you want, and make each entry as long as you want. There's space to store all your information in Custody X Change.

Testimonials

Here's what some of our customers have said:

I'm ... representing myself while my husband has hired a lawyer, and I have been stressing over him trying to pay as little as possible for child support. Your software has been more helpful than you will ever know.

Gena McLellan – Rio Rancho, NM

We lost on everything until we brought this in. With the software, we got everything we wanted in court. They were just completely shell-shocked because it was presented so well visually. I am completely and totally sold.

Ana Marcyan – Lawyer in Lake Forest, IL

The billing cost from a lawyer to prepare the documents would exceed the cost of the program and would be inferior to what you have developed. ... It is a truly valuable tool!!

Russell King – Jacksonville, FL
