AZ Divorce Law Software That Simplifies, Well, Everything

Sorry if we’re stating the obvious. But at Easy Soft, we like to keep things, well, easy.

That’s why we’ve just unveiled our latest software, which creates a case management center for each of your divorce clients. You can have your Arizona family law forms, your child support calculators, your financial worksheets, and all case correspondence stored—and generated—in one place.

We love it, and we trust you will too.

Here’s a little visual of how it works.

1. Open the software. Look at the lower left panel for your navigation tabs.

2. You go to “Case Info” to enter your case information: the wife’s name, the husband’s name, the children’s names, their ages, all relevant income, assets, liabilities, etc.

3. You click on “Support Worksheets” to generate your worksheets. To print the worksheets, simply click “Print.”

4. You click “Add Worksheets” to generate a comparison of multiple worksheet scenarios. Make your changes for each scenario, save, and click on Summary to compare.

The data you’ve collected produces the complex Financial Affidavits required by Arizona state law – where all the calculations are generated for you.

Some touches: you can add an unlimited number of asset items, and debit items—particularly useful for high net work individuals. The form automatically expands to accommodate your entries. Again, to print, you just click “Print”.

You can also choose from either standard family law forms, or new forms—customized specifically for your client.

At your command, any form you need merges with your captured case data. For example, you can click on “affidavit of financial information.” The merged form is now nearly ready, after you answer just a few remaining questions.

All of the documents you generate can be saved as a PDF or Word document. They can all be emailed directly from the software, too.

That’s just the beginning of what this Arizona-specific divorce software can do for you.

Easy, right?

We know. That’s why we call it Easy Soft.

Down The Road: How EzSupport-AZ Assists With Child and Spousal Support Modifications

As the economic climate has shown all too clearly as of late, income fluctuates through life. One day, you’re wealthy, and the next, you need to save.

Needs fluctuate, too  – expanding and contracting according to circumstances, preferences, and budgets.

Your client’s divorce might be final. But in year 3 or 15, one or the other party might request a support modification. What now? Do you start from scratch?

No. When the case is over, you instruct your client to update his or her financial statements every year. From year to year, your client notes fluctuations in income, bank accounts, stock holdings. He or she can mark losses, windfalls, deficits, bonuses, raises. Good news or bad: this creates an easy record. If there’s a request for a modification, you’re prepared.

If you handled this client’s divorce using EzSupport-AZ, our Arizona divorce law software, then updates are easy. Even if you didn’t and you own the software, the information is right at your fingertips.

By the time anyone files for a support modification, the legwork is easy. It’s right in your files:

You’ve got an Arizona child support calculator.

You’ve got the Arizona family law forms.

You just need to plug in your client’s updates. Once you do, EzSupport-AZ generates new financial affidavits, new forms, new comparisons, and new figures for your client to consider and use.

How Generating Automatic Financial Affidavits Makes Life Easy (And Accurate) for Arizona State Divorce Lawyers

In April, 2011, Easy Soft unrolled Arizona divorce law software.

EzSupport-AZ leverages technology to help Arizona State divorce attorneys generate complex worksheets and financial calculations, prepare Arizona family law forms (including customizations), and more.

As with all of our software, we first focus on collecting your case data. Then, the software leverages that data for any purpose that serves your client and his or her case—whether it’s generating Arizona financial affidavits, evaluating a settlement offer, figuring out child support payments, or something as complex as the future value of pensions.

With EzSupport-AZ, you never have to pick up a calculator, or create an Excel spreadsheet. Our software functions like an AZ support calculator, collating and automating data where you need it most.

Not only is this a major convenience for our clients, it reduces the chances of human error. It performs your calculations accurately and systematically—so you can focus less on the math, and more on what you’re trained to do: advocate and negotiate the best deal for your client.

Though our family law software products, the financial questions that can be resolved—accurately and painlessly – are numerous, and include:

  • The value of multiple child and spousal support scenarios
  • Temporary child and spousal support payments
  • The present value of alimony payments
  • The value of enhanced earnings
  • The amount of net disposable income
  • The value of buy-out options
  • The present value of pensions
  • Many, many more

Affordable Arizona State Divorce Calculator – With Document Automation

There has been no single, comprehensive, and affordable divorce law software in Arizona that acts as both a child support calculator, and an automatic generator of forms—including the crucial financial affidavits. Until now.

In April, 2011, Easy Soft launched EzSupport-AZ. This powerful Arizona divorce law software:

1. Generates Financial Affidavits—Automatically. Our EzSupport-AZ software encompasses the Affidavits of Financial Information and Inventory, crucial documents used to present the divorcing couple’s entire financial picture. It’s powerful software that does the math for you—so you can ensure accuracy and maximize the flexibility of options for your client.

2. Provides Arizona Child Support Calculator. Our intelligent software performs crucial calculations and prepares multiple support scenarios—so that you can locate the best option for your client.

3. Generates Customized Forms. In all family law cases, certain basic information (names of parties, years of marriage, names and ages of children) remains the same throughout. This makes it a no-brainer to generate the documents required for any family law case – even the ones which are settled out of court—through the same suite of software that produces your worksheets and your financial calculations.

Easy Soft has seized on this simple principle to bring it all together for our customers.

Invest in our EzSupport-AZ software today, and you’ll get an all-in-one kit that generates financial affidavits, performs other complex divorce calculations, provides Arizona child support guidelines, and generates all of the legal forms you need for your cases.

  • Comparative software won’t give you all of this. Instead, they do it in bits and pieces.
  • Comparative software won’t also provide free setup, unlimited training, free upgrades, practice customization (check with us), unlimited educational support, unlimited tech support, and easy-to-access, personalized service.

Focus less on the financials, and more on advocating and negotiating on behalf of your client.

Arizona Divorce Lawyers: Get Yourself An AZ Child Support Calculator

Make a $50 mistake in a bankruptcy case: that’s a one-time mistake. In a divorce case, the same mistake may cost your client—and his or her children—up to $50 per week, for years. That’s a cost you have to live with.

The solution is to be dead accurate every time. Right?

If you’re a divorce attorney practicing family law in Arizona, you know that’s easier said than done. Arizona divorce calculations are complicated. Even if you’re a bona fide math whiz (given that you went to law school, we’re guessing you’re not), computations for base figures—such as net disposable income or assets & liabilities distribution—can make your head spin.

But properly planned divorce settlements result in higher disposable incomes for both parties—and lower tax liabilities. Helping clients find a divorce settlement that minimizes their tax obligations is not only a matter of professional responsibility: it’s an economic reality.

A Handy Divorce Calculator

In April, 2011, Easy Soft launched a software package to make things easy. EzSupport-AZ is Arizona divorce law software designed for divorce lawyers—not CPAs or tax attorneys. Coupled with Easy Soft’s Divorce Financials program (which works with U.S. Tax Code to capture the tax implications of divorce settlements), Arizona divorce lawyers get every tool they need for their family law practice. The software:

  • Captures all case information (and financial data) from the outset.
  • Generates Arizona’s complicated Affidavit of Financial Information & Inventory Forms.
  • Adjusts support calculations for other dependent children, parenting time, equal custody, and the like.
  • Allows you to prepare multiple support scenarios, compare and pick the best option.

Once you’ve entered the information, our Arizona-specific software does the heavy lifting. The resulting worksheet details a variety of scenarios. For each scenario, it provides a statutorily precise bottom line: one number for spousal support, and another number for child support.

Easy—just like our name.

EzSupport-AZ automates Arizona family law forms, too. These include:

  • Pleadings: Complaints. Answers. Claims. Counterclaims. Motions. Notices. Summons.
  • Correspondence: Letters. Responses.
  • Standard and customized forms.

Our easy-to-use, well reviewed and popular family law software makes it easy to get clients, and help them anytime, and anywhere.

Divorce Settlement Tip #10: Divorce Settlement Tips for Successful Divorces

As we mentioned back during Divorce Settlement Tip #1, family law isn’t the easiest practice in the world. You’ve often got sniping parties and clients who often take things personally. Very personally.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve posted 10 divorce settlement tips to help you serve your clients better—and reach quicker and more satisfactory settlements.  Now it’s time for the granddaddy tip of them all: putting it all together—so that you protect your clients (and yourself), save them money (versus hiring a forensic or matrimonial CPA), and earn their appreciation and (dare we say) adoration for life.

How to do it? It’s simple. Divorce Financials Software. This leading family law software doesn’t make divorce settlements pain-free, but it does facilitate options and planning, so that you can lessen the sting of hurt feelings with quick, viable solutions.

Let’s review our tips.

  1. Always start with available cash. You start by figuring out what everyone’s net income is—not gross income. This way, you know what you’re dealing with.
  2. Always work backwards from need. Similarly, you start with a net “need” figure…otherwise known as a budget.
  3. Disregard absolute numbers (settlement amounts)—in favor or “Net Disposable Income.” You’ve got to plug in the numbers on the table, so that you know what this leaves your client with at the end of the day—after taxes. Only then can your client make a truly informed decision.
  4. Perform an Alimony v. Child Support calculation—for tax purposes. You can’t play much with the lowest figure of child support. But what you can do is posit different combinations—to take the best advantage of what’s tax deductible (alimony) and what’s not (child support).
  5. Always perform a present value calculation for a Lump-Sum Settlement. The point isn’t whether one wants to pay or receive a lump-sum settlement. The point is to consider it as a realistic option—and figure out what it’s worth in an apples-to-apples comparison.
  6. Consider the future value of pensionsPensions are complicated - but our software will hand you a ballpark figure, so at least you know what you’re up against without having to hire a forensic accountant.
  7. Calculate your Alimony Recapture figures. You don’t want your client to get a nasty surprise when tax season comes around.
  8. Consider Equitable Distribution. He wants the cars. She wants the house. Good thing we have a software that keeps an eye on the bottom line at all times—and translates your clients’ preferences into hard-and-fast dollars.
  9. For high net worth clients, perform a Lifestyle Analysis. Enough said.

10.  Put it all together – so that you protect yourself, and earn your clients’ adoration. And this brings us to today.
