Custody X Change
Last Updated
Overview
Custody X Change helps separated parents and legal professionals build custody schedules, parenting plans, and parenting time reports without starting from scratch. Co-parenting messaging works only when the other parent also subscribes, but every other tool can be used solo, with professional printouts for negotiations and hearings.

What Is Custody X Change?
Custody X Change is family law software for separated parents and legal professionals who handle custody arrangements. It has a visual calendar for setting up parenting schedules and templates for writing parenting plans. Reports show custody details for review, while a journal lets parents document co-parenting events. Parents can also track child-related expenses, exchange messages that flag hostile wording, and use every tool alone or with the co-parent. The software helps document family arrangements, though it does not take the place of legal advice.
What Is Custody X Change Best For?
If you need proof of how custody time is actually divided, Custody X Change stands out for its parenting time calculator, which shows the difference between planned and actual time with each parent. Late arrivals and canceled visits can be logged without changing the agreed schedule. Reports show these differences for custody discussions or court review.
How Much Does Custody X Change Cost?
The Custody X Change pricing varies for both parents and legal professionals starting at $10/month. These two packages go as follows:
Parents:
- Bronze: $10/month
- Gold: $20/month
Legal Professionals:
- Pro Bronze: $20/month
- Pro Gold: $40/month
Other additional costs that influence the final price may include:
- Additional User Licenses: Budgets around $10–$20/month/extra user, depending on the plan and group discount
- Payment Fees: Allows almost 0–3% for possible card processing or currency conversion fees; these are not confirmed software charges
- Subscription Renewals: Budget for recurring fees. Resubscription after a lapse may cost more if prices have changed
Disclaimer: The pricing is subject to change.

Custody X Change Use Cases
Based on the capabilities of Custody X Change, here are some scenarios where it is a good fit:
A Family Law Attorney Drafting Custody Proposals For Clients
Family law attorneys can draft parenting plans with clients and map out proposed custody schedules in Custody X Change. The visual calendar shows how changes to holidays, exchange days, or overnight visits affect each parent's scheduled time. Attorneys can review the reports during settlement talks or include them in materials prepared for court.
A Family Law Practice Reviewing Custody Records Before A Hearing
In contested custody cases, attorneys can link their accounts to client records and examine journal entries and parenting time reports. Journal entries are searchable and support attachments. Messages can be filtered by topic and exported for review. This gives attorneys a record of past events and communication to consult alongside their client's account.
A Mediator Comparing Proposed Parenting Arrangements
Mediators can compare proposed custody schedules in Custody X Change using visual calendars and parenting time calculations. If parents disagree about holidays or weekday exchanges, the mediator can adjust the schedule to see how each parent's time would change. These comparisons support discussion, but the software cannot determine which arrangement is legally appropriate.
A Legal Professional Verifying Parenting Time For Child Support Calculations
Child support formulas may use parenting hours or overnight totals, depending on local rules. Custody X Change calculates these figures from the proposed schedule and accounts for holidays and special occasions. Its Family Law Software integration transfers the data to the child support application. The final amount depends on local requirements and each parent's financial information.
Is Custody X Change Right For You?
Custody X Change suits parents who need to create custody schedules, document actual parenting time, and track child-related expenses. Its private journal and reporting tools help organize records for lawyer consultations or court proceedings. However, parents who primarily need co-parent communication must consider that in-app messaging requires linked accounts and separate paid subscriptions for both parents.
Family law firms can use professional accounts to manage client information, share case data with team members, and prepare custody agreements using reusable templates. Separate staff logins and encryption for stored and transmitted data address access control and confidentiality. Its parenting plans have been accepted by courts in all 50 U.S. states, although acceptance of a particular plan depends on the court's requirements and the circumstances of the case.
