The Ultimate Child Custody Trial Prep Workbook

Pro Tip: Document Everything! And document it concisely, in order, in one place.

I want to tell you about this workbook/journal I made, The Ultimate Child Custody Trial Prep Workbook. I have conducted tons of trials, and I frequently have clients in my office complaining about their struggles co-parenting. Then when it comes time for trial, they don’t remember the specifics. They can only offer one or two examples, and it is not enough. I have been telling people for years to get a notebook, and write brief notes on each page, and to staple receipts in along the way. Then it would all be in one place, in order. Well, I have made the notebook, and it is not expensive! You can buy it on Amazon, in grey, pink, or with storm clouds. 

This book has the potential to make or break a custody case. So many people complain: “He never actually exercises his custody. He doesn’t spend any time with them.” Or, “She won’t let me have them on my time.” But then they don’t write any of that down, and when it comes time for court, they don’t remember specific dates or times. This book contains dual calendar pages: one for what the custody schedule is supposed to be, and one to write down how the schedule actually played out in real life. People also complain about how their ex never pays for anything, but they don’t keep track of those expenses. There is space in the book for both notes and expenses, space for exhibits, and space for documenting contact information for witnesses. Tape receipts into the book! Like the bill from the orthodontist’s office. Tape pictures into the book! 

This is what other lawyers have said: “It will teach them what to do,” and “it could be filed as it’s own exhibit,” and “this is the information they need to have.” These are the words out of the professionals’ mouths! Properly kept, with the right information, this workbook could make or break a custody case.
