Workflow

Overview

Drafting comprehensive parenting plans requires hours of research into state-specific requirements, careful attention to custody schedules, and precise language for decision-making provisions. Attorneys spend 4-5 hours per plan researching templates, customizing provisions, and ensuring compliance with local court rules—time that could be spent on higher-value client work.
