My ex and I have always made our own agreements, and have never been to court. We use the federal child support table to calculate child support and made our own custody agreement...well the kids have always just been with me, and we agreed on when he will take them, etc.
With some things however it is a bit of a pain not to have any legal documents to show (such as medical access, permission forms, etc), so I am wondering if it is possible to legalize our agreement without having to go to court. I know my ex will not have a problem with "granting" me the decision-making power because that is how it's been all along, and I always try to keep him in the loop and ask his opinions on certain things.
Can we write up our agreement and take it to a notary public or commissioner of oathes? We live in Alberta.
Thanks
