Filling out a financial disclosure form during divorce: why professional help is important

During the divorce process, it is important to submit a financial disclosure form (Form E), which contains information about income, assets, debts, expenses and expectations. This document is used to make decisions about the division of property, alimony or pensions.

Consultant lawyers:

• help you complete the form correctly in accordance with court standards;
• advise you on what information to include and what to support with separate evidence;
• prepare you for possible requests from the court or the other party.

A correctly completed financial disclosure statement reduces the risk of litigation and promotes a fair settlement.

Legal preparation of accompanying documents for divorce: error-free preparation

In addition to the main divorce petition and financial disclosure statement, it is often necessary to prepare:

• a cover letter to the court;
• a joint application;
• a statement regarding children if there is a custody dispute;
• documents confirming income, place of residence, the existence of a marriage contract, etc.

Consultant's lawyers ensure that all documents are correctly structured and submitted in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Family Law Rules.
