For parents whose case has started, or is about to
The temporary order is the one you’ll live under for months. Most people walk in without a draft.
Who has the kids on which nights. Who stays in the house. Who pays the mortgage, the car, the insurance. What nobody is allowed to cancel, sell or post. All of it gets decided for the months between filing and the final decree.
And the arrangement set now tends to become the pattern everyone assumes later. A temporary order that covers only the schedule is doing maybe a third of its job.
You don’t want to find out what your temporary order left out after it’s signed. You need a draft before the hearing.
The Temporary Orders Complete Bundle is Foundations plus all four temporary order templates: joint 50/50, sole physical, split custody and nesting. Read them side by side, take the one that fits to your attorney, and keep the rest in case the arrangement shifts.
Bought separately: $183 · Together: $87 · You save $96

What a schedule-only temporary order leaves out
- The money. Who pays which bills while the case runs, and what happens when someone stops.
- The status quo. No new debt, no cancelled insurance, no emptied accounts, no surprise moves out of state.
- The communication rules. One platform, in writing, so every exchange isn’t a fresh fight.
- The consequences. What happens when a rule is broken, decided now instead of argued later.
Foundations covers all of it, with notes explaining why each provision is there.
What you get: The Temporary Orders Complete Bundle

Before you decide
“My attorney will write it. Why do I need this?”
Because the hours your attorney spends starting from a blank page are hours you pay for. Walking in with a drafted starting point means the conversation can start at “change this, keep that” instead of “so, tell me about your family.” Your attorney still reviews, edits and approves every word. This makes that work faster and more focused.
“Can’t I just use the free court form?”
Court forms tell you what boxes exist. They rarely tell you what to put in them, or what happens in the situations nobody thinks to write down. These templates are drafted language for those situations, with notes explaining why each provision is there.
“Is this legal advice?”
No. It’s an educational drafting starting point written by a parent, not a lawyer. Nothing in it is tailored to your case, and an attorney licensed in your state has to review it before you use it anywhere.
“I don’t know which structure we’ll end up with.”
That’s the reason this bundle has all four. Most families don’t know at the start, and the temporary arrangement sometimes changes partway through. You read them side by side and take the one that fits to your attorney.

Which framework fits your case is a legal question, and not one I can answer. I’m not an attorney. The Temporary Orders Complete Bundle is an educational template and drafting bundle: a starting point to bring to a licensed attorney, not legal advice, not a finished court document, and not a substitute for one. Created by a parent who navigated the family court system; sold by ValuED Sales LLC dba May Divorce Be With You.
⚠ Read before purchase
This is an educational publication, not legal advice. The author is not an attorney. Purchase does not create an attorney-client relationship, and no information shared with the seller is protected by attorney-client privilege. Materials were drafted with reference to Utah law. Statutory citations and procedural references will not match other states' law without modification. An attorney licensed in your state must review and approve every provision before use, including in Utah.
Do not use this product as your starting point if any of the following applies to your case: domestic violence; active protective order; substance abuse affecting parenting; CPS or DCFS involvement; abuse allegations (substantiated or not); active mental health crisis; international parental abduction risk; significant special needs; complex finances or hidden-asset concerns; or active parental alienation. In any of those situations, go directly to a licensed family law attorney.
This may not be the right starting point right now if any of these describe you: you’re afraid of what the other parent will do if they learn you’re preparing; there has been physical violence or a threat of it; there have been threats to take or harm the children, or you; the other parent monitors your phone, location, accounts, or movements; there’s a current or recent protective order in either direction; or there’s active substance abuse, severe untreated mental illness, or suicidal ideation in the home. Some of the preparation described here can increase danger in a relationship that’s already dangerous. If even one applies, work with someone trained in safety planning first. A domestic violence advocate can help sequence things for your situation.
