Courts and OurFamilyWizard

Reduce the number of repeat visits by giving families the tools they need to resolve parenting issues independently.

Help Empower Parents

By mandating the use of the OurFamilyWizard toolset, courts aren't just giving parents the blueprint for reducing conflict. They are also potentially decreasing docket sizes by minimizing the number of repeat visits. And with the clear and concrete records kept on OurFamilyWizard, any cases that do return will be that much simpler to evaluate.

 

Harmony through clarity

Coordinating shared parenting time, managing family information, and tracking expenses through a single platform prevents information from falling through the cracks. With read receipts for messages, detailed login histories, and other documentation tools, family law practitioners can effectively end any "he said/she said" confusion.

 

Protect children from conflict

OurFamilyWizard keeps co-parenting communication contained and frees children from the stress of playing the role of go-between. Child accounts on OurFamilyWizard have limited access which allows them to stay informed without ever putting them in the middle.

 

Ordered in all 50 states

Hundreds of family law judges, justices, and magistrates in all 50 states and 6 Canadian provinces are ordering families in contested cases to use OurFamilyWizard. The reason is simple: families who use OurFamilyWizard do not return to court nearly as often and, in some cases, ever.

If parents do return, family courts and judges will have access to clear documentation of family activity. No more competing narratives about what was planned versus what actually happened. Family courts can make that differentiation independently using reports that are protected from manipulation and fabrication.
