Since 2001, the
OurFamilyWizard® web and mobile applications have helped co-parents to reduce
conflict and attain more accurate and organized communication records. The
platform was expressly designed to get co-parents to communicate clearly
without being sidetracked by conflict. It does so by providing a variety of
features for organizing information while making it all accessible from one
central location. While some co-parent communication tools only facilitate
messaging, the OurFamilyWizard® website offers a full suite of tools to help
parents create parenting schedules, log expenses, send reimbursements, and
share important family information.
Family courts in all 50
states and across Canada recognize the benefits to parents using these tools
and consistently order their use in contested cases. More than just benefitting
parents, the OurFamilyWizard® toolset also makes it easy for professionals to
work with clients. OFW® Professional Access provides a way to oversee parent
activity and access court-ready reports at no cost. All entries are recorded
indefinitely, and every message is time stamped when sent and first read.
Unlike email or text messages, there is no risk of losing parent activity or
questioning whether something was received. Counsel can quickly access client
information straight from a computer or iPad using the free OFW® app built for
professionals.
With both web and mobile
access to these tools, parents and professionals can access and share
information at home, at the office, or on the go. This makes it easier to
handle family-related matters in real time. For instance, a parent doesn't have
to wait to get home from the pediatrician's office to share details about the
appointment. While waiting for the appointment to wrap up, a parent can use the
OFW® mobile app to quickly upload a photo of the receipt to request
reimbursement from the other parent. The other parent can access that request,
view the receipt, then transfer the funds to the other parent via OFWpay™ in
just the click of a button. For professionals using OFW®, there is no longer a
need for clients to forward loads of emails to their attorneys and other
professionals. When all client communication is accessible in one central
location, a professional can find the important details they need to help their
client without wasting time weeding through frivolous correspondence.
The website's features are
built for parents to intuitively convey information without the need for back
and forth messaging. Even so, the OFW® message board provides a space for
parents to send secure messages while also providing feedback to parents about
the tone of the message. Developed to go against eight levels of connotative
feeling, Tonemeter™ will analyze a new message while a parent composes it and
flag any emotionally charged phrases it detects. This gives the parent a chance
to reframe the tone of their message before sending.
While other web-based
tools only offer a messaging feature for parents and no access to
professionals, the OurFamilyWizard® features not only improve clarity between
co-parents but also makes it easier for counsel to work with clients
effectively. An OurFamilyWizard® subscription gives a parent complete access to
all these tools plus mobile apps and detailed reports. Discounted or free
subscriptions are offered to those who quality. Additionally, OFW® Professional
Access is always free and includes access to link with clients, create new
families, create clear reports, iPad app access, and more.
If you are not utilizing OFW in your practice, or failing to recommend it to your clients, you are really shorting your practice. Check it out. Give Matt a call and request more information. You will be impressed.
