During the financial proceedings of a divorce, parties are expected to make full disclosure of their finances to each other and provide details of their current circumstances.
In most cases, this disclosure will be given through the completion of a form known as the Form E.
Once completed, the Form E will provide full details of each parties’ finances with the addition of their supporting documents. These details are then filed with the Court and exchanged between parties.
Parties are encouraged to start financial disclosure at an early stage to ensure negotiations run smoothly and attempt to reach an amicable result.
The court will require the completion of a Form E in instances where either party has made an application to the court for a financial settlement.
What information is required:
1. Property Valuations
2. Details of any significant assets
3. Information relating to income, savings & bank accounts
4. Insurance Details
5. Investment details
6. Details of any outstanding debts
7. Capital gains
8. Business assets
9. Pension information
10. Information relating to any future changes in circumstance
Due to the extensive nature of the Form E, it can seem daunting to complete the document. At Dylan Nair Solicitors we provide support to help guide you through the process of completing your Form E.
