Every expense and message you log in FairSplit automatically compiles into a formatted, timestamped PDF — ready for your attorney, your mediator, or the court. No assembly. No screenshots. No billable admin hours.
Your attorney asked for communication records.
You have texts on your personal phone. More texts on a second number you started using because the first felt too personal. A WhatsApp thread. Three expense-related emails. A screenshot of a Venmo request your co-parent claims they never received. Two photos of receipts you took at the pharmacy and forgot to organize.
Pulling this together will take six hours. Your attorney bills in six-minute increments at $380 per hour. That is $2,280 in documentation admin before a single legal argument has been made.
Every parent going through a custody dispute has this problem. Most of them pay to solve it at their attorney's billing rate.
FairSplit solves it automatically — before you ever need it.
FairSplit's court PDF is not a feature you activate. It is a record that builds itself, automatically, from the moment you start using the app.
Every message and expense you make in FairSplit is timestamped to the second and stored permanently on FairSplit's servers. You do not activate documentation — it happens automatically from the moment you create your account. Neither parent can edit or delete any entry after it is created.
Tap Export. Select a date range — last 30 days, last 6 months, or full record since account creation. Choose PDF. The file is ready within seconds. The PDF is organized chronologically: messages in thread order with timestamps, and expenses with receipt images and approval status.
Link your attorney to your FairSplit account through Settings → Professional Access. They receive a free Professional Portal invitation. Once accepted, they have permanent read-only access to your complete record and can download court PDFs for any date range directly — without asking you for screenshots or exports.
Every message sent and received through FairSplit's secure channel — date, time, sender, content, and delivery status. Messages flagged by either party appear with the flag and reason noted. Read receipts included where applicable.
Every shared expense submitted — receipt image, expense category (medical, school, activities, clothing, childcare), total amount, agreed split, amount requested, date submitted, date responded, approval or dispute status, payment confirmation if transferred, dispute reason if contested.
First log-in date for each parent. Frequency of app use. Number of expenses submitted and responded to versus ignored. This summary, read alongside the message and expense log, creates a behavioral picture that is useful context for attorneys and mediators.
Most parents do not think about documentation until they need it for court. By that point, the evidence that would have helped them most — the messages from three months ago, the expense requests that went unanswered — is gone, dispersed, or unverifiable.
A WhatsApp message can be claimed as edited. A screenshot has no verified timestamp. An expense paid in cash has no record.
FairSplit's record is different in three specific ways that matter legally.
Neither parent can edit or delete anything in FairSplit after it is created. The record you export six months from now is identical to the record created in real time. This makes it useful as legal evidence, not just a message log.
Every entry carries a server-side timestamp — not a device timestamp that can be manipulated by changing a phone's clock, but a timestamp from FairSplit's infrastructure. This is the same principle that makes bank records reliable in court.
The record is held by FairSplit's servers — a neutral third party — not on either parent's device. Neither parent controls the record. The export is generated from FairSplit's servers, not assembled from device logs.
These three properties — immutability, server-side timestamps, and third-party storage — are what family law attorneys mean when they say a record is “court-friendly.” They are the properties FairSplit's PDF is built on.
Attorneys bill in six-minute increments — 0.1 of an hour per billing unit. At $380 per hour, that is $38 per six-minute increment. Sorting through screenshots, organizing texts by date, and compiling expense records typically takes two to four hours per session — and often needs to be done multiple times as a case progresses.
| Documentation session | Time | Cost at $380/hr |
|---|---|---|
| First session — initial records compilation | 2–3 hours | $760–$1,140 |
| Second session — update before hearing | 1–2 hours | $380–$760 |
| Third session — response to opposing counsel | 1–2 hours | $380–$760 |
| Total across case | 4–7 hours | $1,520–$2,660 |
FairSplit is free forever — no subscription, ever. A single eliminated documentation session is worth $380–$760, at zero ongoing cost.
Full access to your complete FairSplit record at any time. Export any date range as PDF or CSV. Free for everyone — your data is always exportable, with no subscription required.
With your one-tap approval, your attorney gets permanent read-only access through their free Professional Portal. They can download your court PDF directly — filtered by date range, organized automatically. No screenshots needed from you.
Can see the shared record — messages you exchanged and expenses you submitted. Cannot see data you logged independently in Solo Mode. Cannot edit, delete, or alter any entry in the shared record.
FairSplit does not share your data with third parties. Your children's information is stored with encryption. The record is accessible only to you, your explicitly approved professionals, and your co-parent within the scope of the shared record.
You cannot create a court-friendly record retroactively.
A WhatsApp message from six months ago can be claimed as edited. An expense you paid last year has no receipt on file.
FairSplit's record begins the moment you create your account. Every message from that point forward is timestamped and permanent. Every expense from that point forward has a receipt and an outcome.
The record that will help you six months or two years from now is the one that starts today.
Free forever. Court PDF export is included for everyone — no subscription, ever.
Every message and expense from today forward is timestamped, immutable, and automatically compiled into a formatted PDF.

FairSplit's PDF export is designed to support attorney and court documentation workflows, and is used by family law attorneys in proceedings across the US. The record's properties — immutability, server-side timestamps, and third-party storage — are the same properties that make bank records reliable in court. We do not guarantee admissibility in any specific jurisdiction — evidentiary rules vary by state and by judge. Confirm requirements with your family law attorney before relying on any record in proceedings.
The court PDF includes: complete message log (timestamped, sender-labeled, immutable), expense record (receipt images, amounts, splits, approval status, payment confirmation), and account activity summary (log-in frequency, expense response patterns). All records are organized chronologically within each category.
Tap Export in your FairSplit account. Select the date range you need — last 30 days, last 6 months, or full record since account creation. Choose PDF. The file is ready within seconds. Your attorney can also download it directly from their free Professional Portal — no action required from you.
Yes. When you link your attorney to your FairSplit account (Settings → Professional Access → enter their email), they receive a free Professional Portal invitation. Once they accept, they have permanent read-only access to your complete record and can download court PDFs for any date range directly — without asking you for screenshots or exports.
No. Every message and expense entry in FairSplit is immutable once created — neither parent can edit or delete it. The record you export six months from now is identical to the record created in real time. This immutability is a core design property of the platform, not a setting that can be changed.
Yes. Court-ready PDF export is included for everyone, free, with no subscription. Your records build automatically as you use FairSplit, and you can export any date range as a formatted PDF or CSV at any time, at no cost.
No. FairSplit's record begins from the moment you create your account. Messages sent before you joined and expenses paid before you signed up are not in your FairSplit record. This is why starting as early as possible matters — the record that will be useful six months or two years from now begins today.
