EMERGENCY CUSTODY KIT

Emergency Custody Motion Builder

Your child is in danger. Pick your emergency type, fill in what happened, and we generate a Motion + Affidavit + Proposed Order — draft documents to review before filing.

Three preparation drafts: an emergency custody motion, supporting affidavit and proposed order. If a child is in immediate danger, call 911.

Your state is used to load the right resource links and checkout. This builder creates a general draft, not state-specific court forms. Check your local court's current forms and filing rules; consider review by a family law attorney.
$9 one-time

30-day builder access after payment. Print or save your drafts as PDF. Not official court forms or legal advice; court fees, filing and attorney review are not included.

7-day tool guarantee: if the builder fails to generate your document, we will refund you. Contact support for help or a refund
