Why VFL Toolkit

One app. The whole Virginia case.

Five reasons Virginia family-law attorneys replace the spreadsheet stack.

1

Feature set

One Virginia-only app replaces spreadsheets, scattered Word templates, bookmarked statutes, and a binder of local rules — all fed from a single matter profile.

2

Simplicity

One matter profile feeds every calculation, every PDF, every template. Encrypted client intake fills it in for you. Install, run intake, draft.

3

Security

Local-first by default. iCloud sync is opt-in through your private iCloud. The optional hosted intake service is zero-knowledge — the server never sees readable client data.

4

Mac-centered

True macOS — not a web app in a wrapper. Menu commands, ⌘K global search, desktop-class document generation. The Mac app is included with every plan.

5

Honest pricing

Two paid plans. No per-matter fees, no add-on modules. Annual plans run about 20% less than monthly, with a 7-day introductory trial when eligible.

Calculate

Support Calculators

Virginia guideline calculations that match the Code — including the 2025 child-support schedule — not a spreadsheet someone built in 2011.

  • Child support for sole, shared, split, and hybrid custody — DC-637, DC-638, and DC-640 worksheets generated automatically
  • Spousal support under Va. Code Ann. § 16.1-278.17:1, with and without minor children
  • Income imputation, retroactive support with daily-compounding statutory interest, and annual-pay analysis
  • Military LES/ELS parsing with camera OCR, plus Regular Military Compensation (RMC) with DoD differential-tax math
  • Every result saves to the matter and exports as a court-ready worksheet
DC-637DC-638DC-640LES / ELS OCR
Never miss a date

Pretrial Orders, Deadlines & Motions

Sixteen court-specific scheduling-order templates count back from your trial date with Virginia holiday math built in.

  • 15 prebuilt court templates — Hampton Roads, Northern Virginia, Richmond Metro, the 9th Circuit — plus a custom builder for any court
  • Automatic weekend and Virginia court-holiday rollback on every deadline
  • 54 Virginia pretrial motions tagged by court, authority, timing, and the J&DR / Circuit discovery distinction
  • A Rule 4:12 fee-motion builder that emits motion, affidavit, and proposed order as one PDF packet
  • One-tap export to Apple Calendar or a universal .ics file

A complete GAL workspace

Pick one of ten appointment types and the whole workspace adapts — its own Case Guide, the right statutes, and the forms Virginia actually requires.

  • Appointment-type Case Guide: governing statutes, recordable element assessments that file into your report, a prep checklist, child-interview prompts by age band, and an oral-report outline
  • Rate-aware DC-40 time tracking with a court-ready PDF timesheet export
  • DC-540 compliance certification with face-to-face hours auto-filled from the time tracker
  • A Report Builder that compiles your investigation into an editable Word draft with Initial / Supplemental sequencing
  • One-tap GAL letters — records requests under § 16.1-266(G), counsel authorization, party introductions — with automatic DC-514 enclosure
  • A four-stage statutory Dependency Timeline for abuse & neglect, CHINS, entrustment, and TPR dockets

Equitable Distribution

Structure the property case with the framework Virginia courts expect.

  • Brandenburg analysis with marital / separate / hybrid classification
  • Property inventory, debt schedule, and retirement schedule — each its own exhibit-ready PDF
  • Military retirement guidance: SBP, DFAS direct-pay eligibility, gray-area retiree callouts
  • QDRO / COAP pointers across IRA, TSP, 401(k), pension, FERS, CSRS, VRS, and military pension types

Documents that draft themselves

Merge a matter into finished paperwork — Word templates, in-app letters, or AI-assisted template creation. No retyping, ever.

  • Import your firm's Word (.docx) templates and merge matter data into filing-ready documents — 160+ merge fields
  • Letter Templates: author reusable correspondence in the app, wrapped in your firm letterhead — no Word needed
  • Template Creation Assistant maps highlighted firm documents into draft templates automatically
  • A curated Virginia clause library with merge fields already embedded
  • Optional on-device AI drafts or rewords letter text — nothing leaves your devices, and it never replaces your words without your say-so
  • Standardized signature blocks, Certificate of Service, and attorney-controlled redaction on every export

  • Rule 1:18B witness and exhibit lists with exchange and objection deadlines
  • Tiered expert designations and an attorney's-fees affidavit builder

Intake, billing & trust accounting

The client fills in the file before you open it — and the books balance without a second subscription.

  • Encrypted client intake the client completes in any browser — decrypted only on your device
  • Optional zero-knowledge hosted links: send a secure URL instead of an attachment; the server never sees readable data
  • Matter-type-aware questionnaires — divorce, custody, four adoption types, contested adoption, donor agreements, GAL
  • Optional billing: time entries with a running timer, hard and soft costs, client bills with a review workflow
  • Trust accounting with per-client ledgers, reconciliation safeguards, and letterhead billing statements
  • Online payments with LawPay: request retainer/trust deposits and bill payments as secure links — card or eCheck, posted straight to the right ledger
  • Per-matter ShareFile secure workspace with party-scoped folders, an in-app file browser, and privilege-safe sharing
  • Send documents for legally binding electronic signature, with signers drawn from the matter
  • Optional Shared Firm Workspace: invite a paralegal or staff member to work the same clients, matters, time, and billing from their own device — only what your permissions allow, shared entirely through your own private iCloud with no developer server

At your desk. In court. On the go.

True native apps on every Apple device — not a website in a wrapper. The Mac app is included with every subscription at no extra cost.

iPhone

The full feature set tuned for the courthouse — quick calculations on the go — in consultations, at counsel table, or in depositions.

iPad

A three-column layout, full-screen worksheets, and side-by-side case review with a keyboard.

Mac

Desktop-class document generation, menu-bar commands, and ⌘K search across the whole practice.

Local-first by design

Client data stays on your devices.

Confidentiality isn't a feature tier — it's the architecture.

📱

On-Device Storage

Every matter, client, and calculation is stored locally on your device by default.

🔒

Biometric Lock

Face ID, Touch ID, or Optic ID re-locks the app the moment it leaves the foreground.

☁️

Opt-In iCloud Sync

Sync runs through your private iCloud — never through a developer database.

🛡️

Attorney-Controlled Redaction

A Redact sheet appears before every export, so you decide what gets masked, every time.

🧠

Private, On-Device AI

Template drafting runs entirely on-device using Apple Intelligence. No cloud, no external training.

No developer-operated server touches matter data unless you opt into the zero-knowledge hosted intake service — and even then, the server never sees plaintext.
Apple-native by design

Integrations you can defend.

Every integration is under your control and chosen from the legal industry's own tools. Nothing routes matter data through a server you wouldn't choose yourself.

Progress ShareFile ShareFile e-signature LawPay payments Apple Calendar iCloud Drive iCloud Sync Hosted Intake (zero-knowledge)

Deliberately not integrated: third-party practice-management clouds, ad networks, analytics, or anything else that would route client data through a non-Apple, non-attorney-controlled server.
