Client satisfaction built in

Clients like the way CalSupport changes the focus from, "How much support?" to the much easier discussion, "Is this data correct?" They appreciate the easy-to-understand worksheets and reports with the bottom line figure that says how much spendable income is left in their pockets after all support and add-ons are paid. They value having a reliable report of guideline support to use in their cases.

 
 
Professional satisfaction, too

Professionals like CalSupport's clarity and ease-of-use. CalSupport guides you every step of the way. There is no ambiguity about where any particular data goes. There are no hidden options, tactics or switches to worry about. CalSupport prints worksheets to help your clients gather data and reports that make your clients value your service.

 
 
Accepted in all courts!

California Rules of Court, Title V, Section 5.275(j), states: “All courts must permit parties or attorneys to use any software certified by the Judicial Council under this rule.” CalSupport software is certified by the Judicial Council. To make judges comfortable, CalSupport can print a court report that closely resembles reports from DissoMaster or SupporTax.

 
 
Wait a minute!   What's the point?

Numbers are not enough. Of course you want accurate guideline figures—and the Judicial Council says that's what you get from CalSupport—but what your clients really want is an agreement. CalSupport is the only program that goes beyond the numbers and goes to work on getting an agreement. CalSupport is built for reliable information, clear communication and successful negotiation.
