"I love the software. It has changed the way I practice. Knowledge is power. When you can use real numbers, after taxes, that gives you confidence and a real leg up in the negotiation.

For example, in a recent case, the other side wanted to give less alimony, and because I had your budgeting, I now knew that the wife would not have had enough income. Using your reports, I was able convince the other side."

Dori-Ellen Feltman, Westport, CT

"Family Law Software is user friendly - for me as well as for my clients. It allows me to work more cost effectively and efficiently.

Perhaps most importantly, the customer support is terrific."

Lisa Cappalli, Cheshire, CT

"I am a believer in Family Law Software.

I had developed my own spreadsheets for calculation of financial affidavits and child support guidelines several years ago. I wrote macros, I generated forms and I kept a fairly good finger on the pulse of tax implications while under development.

I can affirmatively say that Family Law Software, its developer, and the product have enhanced my knowledge of tax implications and eased my racing mind from the task of keeping up with greater and growing demands to massage the financial data of a devolving marriage into a workable format."

William R. Donaldson, Esq. Donaldson, Kershaw & Norris, Esq.

"I am not very computer savvy. I used FinPlan, and it was not user friendly. I gave Family Law Software a try.

I like it much better. It is much more user friendly. It is comprehensive.

You type something in once and it appears everywhere it should appear. I also like the fact that when I have a question, they respond. The support is excellent."

Richard Gee, Yalesville, CT

"I use Family Law Software to prepare financial affidavits and child support guidelines, and I also use the total property report.

It is better than what I was using before because it is all in one program. I don't have to go opening several programs.

The support has been fabulous as well."

Wendy Prince, Prince & Cotler, Stamford, CT

"I am an attorney who practices exclusively divorce mediation and collaborative divorce.

I use the Family Law Software program from the beginning to the end of each case I work on.

The software is great for budgeting, tax decisions and asset division.

The couples I work with appreciate the easy to read print-outs and my ability to alter them so quickly and accurately.

 I also keep all my general data about the couples in their software file. It helps me to stay organized.

As the case moves toward conclusion, I use Family Law Software to produce the financial affidavits and child support guidelines worksheets.

In addition to the user-friendly nature of the software, the customer service I receive from Family Law Software is outstanding."

Vicki Volper, Westport, CT

"I have found Family Law Software to be great for the financial planning aspect of mediation and collaboration, guidelines, cash flow, and property division.

If you put the data in and use their tools, you can print a Property Division Report, Guidelines, Budget/Cash Flow and Financial Affidavits from the reports.

I am using the client-side data input feature in most of my cases. This saves a lot of data input time which my clients appreciate. They absolutely love to have a pro-active thing to do to save money and move things along -- especially when one of them is comfortable with computers, which is usually the case.

I have had a lot of communication with the company in terms of the program, and they have been very responsive in responding to questions and incorporating suggestions. I have found the support to be both available and reliable.

In almost all my cases there is a question like, "Can one of us afford the house?? or "can we both make it?" that the program is a big help in answering

If you enter the parties' income, expenses, and assets, all that data flows to the Financial Affidavit. The Affidavit feature is almost worth the price of admission all by itself.

This software has been a great investment. It's worth the money and the learning curve. It has saved both me and my clients lots of time. They really appreciate it, which has resulted in referrals.

Susan Smith, Avon, CT

I think FLS is INCREDIBLY COOL! It lets you *SEE* and *UNDERSTAND* the consequences of any settlement. It lets you cut through the whole smoke screen of alimony vs child support vs assets vs whatever and cut to the chase: what's the long-term result? It lets you see which settlements are equivalent in long-term net worth: ie, if I want to trade less alimony for more assets, exactly how much to keep the same parity...

Paul P, Software Developer

"I hope that your sales are up: your software package has filled a niche that was sorely in need of correct information. Neither attorneys (Family Law, Accountants, nor the Judiciary) has a good understanding of the changing support statutes. I believe that the legal profession is not well equipped to understand "mathematical concepts," and accountants rarely are involved in actual support calculations.

Your software is empowering, even if its results raise the ire of those who should but do not know how to apply the statutes correctly . Congrats on providing the tools to empower parents to ensure that they are treated the same in all courts by adherence to the laws as they are written, not as they may be capriciously interpreted . "

A.G. Medical Doctor (Internal Medicine)

"I discovered this software just as we were starting our divorce procedure. I was going through depression, was confused, angry, despondent.... This software was a Godsend. It gave me the emotional support and knowledge for me to understand and deal with my divorce process. 

I really connected with the personal relationship issues and real-life examples in the "Life" section, found the "How to Negotiate" section particularly informative enabling me to understanding the processes involved, and got a solid handle on the "what-ifs" of my future fiscal life with the "Financial" chapters. Child Support Calculator in particular (which printed out the forms for my state all filled in to my situation) - saved me untold hours of work. These calculator "what-if" printouts enabled us to cut through hours of back-and-forth negotiations which easily saved me the cost of this software in lawyer's fees.

This program goes far beyond the dry nuts-and-bolts of a divorce process. The "feel" and ease of use of this program with personal support it provides was *just* what I needed at the time. It enabled me to participate in the process rather than being a mote blown by the winds. A few minutes with the software here and there would save me hours of angst and hassle in our meetings. My lawyer was so impressed with this program that he got it for his office! 

I highly recommend this product for ALL parties in a divorce."

Rich Morse, via e-mail

"I ran a number of child support scenarios and they all seem to tally with the results I got at the courthouse using the Dissomaster [California Child Support Software] last year.

I much prefer having the software at home, and it is MUCH more user friendly than the court's version (which comes with no instruction manual and a rather arcane interface which was extremely difficult to puzzle out)."

"I am very impressed with your product and the excellent technical support provided."

"Just wanted to send a short note to tell you that your site is the single best, most informative, easiest to navigate, and quickest loading of any website I have visited on any topic. You are providing a valuable service. Congratulations on a huge accomplishment."

"Family Law Software saved me thousands of dollars by finding a tax angle my accountant had missed."

R.S., Marketing Communications

"The detailed state-specific legal information enabled me to better understand what my lawyer told me. The financial tools, however, are the real gem of this program, as they allowed me to model various settlement scenarios with regard to taxes, equity, retirement and other financial issues around my divorce. This kind of detail was just not practical for my lawyer to do with me--not at $200/hour!"

B.K., Pediatrician

"I like the program and think it is well done. The calculators will help me wrap things up in a lot of the areas."

A.P., a Family Law Software customer, via e-mail

"I've been through living hell and I've spent thousands of dollars on attorneys, and this software finally helped me show the attorneys what I was trying to tell them. If you buy this software, you're going to have a case to go to court with. 

I'm 45. When I'm 65, my children will be in college. The chart from the software shows that, even with a cut in my expenses, college spirals me negative. That alone has been worth the price of the software. 

It allows you to clearly show the judge what's going to happen and get fairness in the distribution.

R.P., Software developer

"Family Law Software gave me the baseline knowledge I needed to be proactive about the progress of my case. Just understanding the parameters helped guide my expectations of the process and likely outcomes. I probably saved thousands of dollars in billable attorney time since I had the straightforward answer to many of my most basic questions from Family Law Software."
