Most of the fluid is in the trans, and not in the pan. If you drop the pan and do the filter change, and gasket yourself you will only get about 1/3 of the old fluid out of the trans.
I would suggest taking the car to a trans service pro. They have a device that pumps the fluid in through the lines and removes all old fluid.
It may cost $100.00 approx, for filter, gasket and fluid.
