Pennsylvania Parenting Plan
A Parenting Plan is a legal document that outlines each party’s parenting time and parental responsibilities and rights when parents are divorcing or separating and have children together.
The form contains comprehensive information about custody arrangements, including decision-making authority, physical custody schedules, visitation arrangements, and other issues pertaining to the child and their relationship with each parent, and when parents are applying for joint custody especially, most Pennsylvania courts require parenting plans to be submitted. It presents a detailed framework for how divorced or separated parents will share custody and make decisions about their children’s welfare, education, healthcare, and daily care.

Parenting plan proposals are usually due five days before the pre-trial conference, and within 30 days of filing custody documents, you must serve the defendant with the required paperwork. After submission, the judge considers each proposal when making a decision following trial, and once approved by the court, the parenting plan becomes a legally binding order that governs how the parents will share custody and make decisions regarding their children.
