FairLedger gives co-parents a tamper-proof, jointly acknowledged record of every expense, payment, and custody change, so the record your clients bring to mediation or court is complete, credible, and produced in minutes.

Without a contemporaneous record, paralegals spend hours auditing client text screenshots to reconstruct disputes that could have been documented in real time. Family law disputes often involve reconstructing months of fragmented communication, screenshots, receipts, and conflicting spreadsheets. FairLedger is designed to create a contemporaneous financial and communication record as events occur, rather than after positions harden and memories diverge.
Both parents have accounts. Shared expenses require acknowledgment from the other party, discussions stay attached directly to each transaction, and the system preserves a tamper-evident history of what was submitted, approved, disputed, or adjusted over time. The goal is to produce a record that is organized, exportable, and easier for attorneys and mediators to follow.
Every expense is submitted by one parent and reviewed by the other: approved or disputed with a documented reason. Both parties are on record.
Approved and disputed entries cannot be edited or deleted. The history is permanent. Corrections enter as adjustment records; the original stays visible.
Expenses are timestamped at submission. The record shows when each entry was made, not when it was convenient to add it.
Photos, PDFs, and insurance EOBs attach directly to the transaction they support. Dollar amounts are backed by documentation, not memory.
Support obligations and shared expense reimbursements are tracked seperately, no informal netting of support against expenses, a common source of contempt exposure when support withholding is disputed.
A clean, printable report covering any date range: every transaction, its status, the running balance, and disputed entries clearly marked.
A $47 expense. Two parents. A record vs a recollection.
"I paid for Emma's birthday cake — $47. You owe me half."
"Party expenses aren't covered under the MSA."
"It says children's activities — a birthday is an activity."
"We're going to have to agree to disagree."
Eight months later in mediation: conflicting recollections, a text thread nobody can fully produce, and a dispute that was never formally resolved.
The dispute reason is preserved verbatim, timestamped, and attached to the transaction. Your client walks in with the record. You don't have to reconstruct it.
We've built a pre-populated live account showing both parents' perspectives: real expenses, approvals, disputes, custody schedules, and the export your client would hand you. No sign-up required.

FairLedger's expense report is designed to be readable by someone with no prior knowledge of the case. Select the date range, generate, and share. No reformatting required.
FairLedger isn't just an expense tracker. The custody calendar logs formal swap requests with a full request-and-response audit trail. Every conversation between co-parents is attached to the specific expense, event, or swap it relates to, not buried in a text thread.
FairLedger includes a solo mode for clients who want to begin building a timestamped record before, or without, their co-parent's cooperation. Solo entries are logged individually, receipts attach normally, and the record transitions to full mutual acknowledgment mode the moment the other parent joins.
A solo record is not a jointly verified record, but a timestamped, receipt-backed history of one parent's out-of-pocket spending is a useful foundation, particularly when the other parent's cooperation is in dispute.
Clients can sign up for a free 30-day trial. No credit card required. They can start in solo mode immediately, and invite their co-parent when ready.
After the trial, plans start at $9.99/month.
