Fillable Edition
When everyone says "document everything"… but nobody shows you how.
Custody and co-parenting situations can quickly become overwhelming. Text messages, missed pickups, schedule changes, receipts, screenshots, and attorney notes end up scattered across your phone, email, folders, and memory. The Custody File gives you a simple structure to record what happened, where the evidence is stored, and what needs to be reviewed.
Scattered Evidence
Screenshots, receipts, emails, and files are hard to find when you need them.
Emotional Notes
Stress makes it easy to write long stories instead of clear, factual records.
Unprepared Meetings
Attorney meetings are expensive. Disorganized notes can waste time.
A simple system for turning chaos into clear records.
The Custody File helps you create dated, factual, easy-to-review documentation. Each section is designed to help you record key details, connect them to supporting evidence, and prepare cleaner notes.
Incident Log
Record what happened, when it happened, who was present, what was said, and what evidence supports it.
Communication Log
Track co-parent exchanges with date, channel, sender, evidence ID, and neutral summary.
Parenting Time Tracker
Compare scheduled time vs actual time and identify monthly patterns.
Expense Tracker
Track child-related expenses, receipts, reimbursement requests, and payments received.
Attorney Prep
Prepare questions, meeting notes, decisions, and next actions.
Evidence Index
Connect every screenshot, photo, receipt or email to the correct log entry using Evidence IDs.
