The Landscape

Who we're up against.

The divorce professional market has long been served by a patchwork of legacy calculators, general-purpose law practice platforms, and state-specific tools. SecureSplit® was purpose-built to replace all of them.

SecureSplit®

The only platform purpose-built for the full divorce professional ecosystem, combining secure client intake, case management, state-specific financial analysis, and court-ready reporting for attorneys, CDFAs®, mediators, and financial advisors across all 51 jurisdictions.

Family Law Software

Financial analysis tool

Financial analysis tool for CDFAs®. Strong on calculations and property division in roughly 22 states, but no case management, no team collaboration, and a Windows desktop-era interface.

22-state coverage only

Clio

General legal practice management

Leading general-purpose legal platform. Excellent for billing and case management, but not built for divorce financials, CDFA® tools, or court-ready financial reporting.

Not built for divorce

MyCase

Legal practice management

Practice management and client portal for solo and small-firm attorneys. Solid for general case tracking, but carries none of the divorce-specific financial tools professionals require.

Not built for divorce

Smokeball

Legal practice management + document automation

Windows-based legal platform with strong auto time tracking and 20,000+ jurisdiction-specific forms. Divorce financial tools are a paid add-on (FamilyPro), with no CDFA® or mediator functionality.

Attorney-only · Financials cost extra

Xspouse

California support calculation software

California Judicial Council-certified replacement for DissoMaster as of April 2025. Windows-only. Accurate CA guideline support calculations, but locked to one state with no collaboration or platform capabilities.

California only · Windows only
Discontinued

DissoMaster

Support calculation software (retired)

Formerly the California standard for guideline support calculations. Thomson Reuters discontinued DissoMaster on March 31, 2025. Its CA Judicial Council certification has expired. Replaced in CA courts by Xspouse.
