One journey, two interlocking processes. The APPLICANT line runs the whole way: the applicant starts the no-fault divorce (D8), obtains the Conditional Order after a 20-week reflection period, resolves the finances (Form A onward), then applies for the Final Order LAST. The marriage ends only at the Final Order — and applying for it before finances are resolved can lose pension and inheritance rights, so an amber caution links the two. The applicant files Form A to ask the court to decide the finances; the court responds by issuing Form C, which fixes the First Appointment and the disclosure timetable. The centre 'Both parties' lane shows the steps both parties share — the Form E exchange, questionnaires, ES1/ES2, and the FDA, FDR and Final hearings both parties attend. The respondent acknowledges the divorce, then prepares their own cross-application (if any), s.25 statement and FDR position. Settlement can happen at any stage — a consent order with a Form D81 is approved on paper. After a final order, the payee has a six-instrument enforcement toolkit for unpaid sums; appeals (error of the court) and set-aside (Barder / non-disclosure) sit post-order.

Important: This journey map shows the typical stages of the relevant court or tribunal proceedings. It is general information, not legal advice. Every case is different. For advice about your specific situation, consult a solicitor or instruct a barrister directly.

Quick Answer

A Financial Remedy bundle compiles Form E, asset schedules, and evidence for divorce financial proceedings. BundleCreator is online court bundle software that automates pagination and indexing in line with PD27A, reducing preparation from hours to minutes.

Last reviewed: 25 April 2026 by Stevie Hayes

What to look for in family court bundle software for financial remedy

Form E disclosure, FDA, FDR, and final hearings each have different bundle needs. Financial remedy proceedings also have a different pagination requirement from other family work. These are the features to weigh up.

  • Arabic consecutive pagination through the whole bundle

    Financial remedy proceedings under PD27A Chapter 6 require consecutive Arabic numbering (1, 2, 3 …) running through the entire bundle, distinct from the per-section restart used in non-financial-remedy family work. Software should support both modes and apply the right one for the hearing type.

  • Form E and supporting-document templates

    A pre-loaded template that mirrors the structure of Form E — capital, income, pensions, schedule of assets — with placeholders for bank statements, payslips, P60s, pension valuations, and surveyors' reports.

  • FDA, FDR, and final-hearing bundle profiles

    Each stage of financial remedy proceedings has different evidential requirements. Software should let you switch between an FDA bundle, an FDR bundle, and a final-hearing bundle without rebuilding from scratch.

  • Pension and asset-schedule attachment handling

    Pension Cash Equivalent valuations and asset schedules sit at the heart of financial remedy bundles. The tool should handle large PDF attachments without timing out and keep cross-references intact through revision.

  • Section 25 factors structure for the skeleton argument

    A skeleton-argument template structured around the section 25 Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 factors, so the bundle and the advocacy align.

  • UK data residency and AES-256 encryption at rest

    Financial remedy bundles contain bank account numbers, pension valuations, and tax data. Keep that data UK-resident, encrypted at rest with AES-256, and in transit over TLS 1.3.

  • Transparent pricing without a sales call

    A 7-day trial and published pricing means you can evaluate the tool against an actual case before committing.

Understanding Financial Remedy in Divorce

A guide to Form E financial disclosure, the FDR hearing process, and preparing your financial remedy bundle for court in England and Wales

Navigating Financial Remedy in Divorce

When a marriage ends in England and Wales, a Financial Remedy Order is often required to legally divide assets like the family home, pensions, and savings. The most critical document in this process is the Form E financial statement.

Financial remedy proceedings follow a structured process through the Family Court, typically involving a First Appointment (FA, sometimes still referred to as FDA), Financial Dispute Resolution (FDR) hearing, and if necessary, a Final Hearing.

What is a Form E?

Form E is a comprehensive document where both parties must provide 'full and frank' disclosure of their finances. Missing documents or errors here can lead to significant delays and potential costs penalties.

The form requires detailed information about income, capital assets, pensions, liabilities, and living expenses. It must be supported by documentary evidence including bank statements, property valuations, and pension valuations (CEVTs). Form E must be filed 35 days before the First Appointment.

Preparing for the FDR Hearing

The Financial Dispute Resolution (FDR) hearing is a 'without prejudice' meeting for negotiation facilitated by a judge. Success at an FDR depends heavily on having a professional financial remedy bundle that demonstrates full disclosure.

  • Your completed Form E with all supporting annexures and documentary evidence
  • Bank statements for the past 12 months for all accounts
  • Property valuations and mortgage statements
  • Pension CEVTs (Cash Equivalent Transfer Values) for all pension schemes
  • ES1 and ES2 schedules summarising assets and issues in dispute
  • Open proposals setting out your position on the financial settlement

Section 25 Matrimonial Causes Act 1973: The Court's Checklist

When determining financial remedy, the court must consider all circumstances of the case, with first consideration given to the welfare of any child of the family. Your bundle should address each statutory factor.

Section 25(2)(a): Income & Earning Capacity

Income, earning capacity, property, and other financial resources which each party has or is likely to have in the foreseeable future.

Bundle evidence: P60s, payslips, tax returns, business accounts, employment contracts

Section 25(2)(b): Financial Needs

Financial needs, obligations, and responsibilities which each party has or is likely to have in the foreseeable future.

Bundle evidence: Mortgage statements, loan agreements, child maintenance calculations

Section 25(2)(c): Standard of Living

The standard of living enjoyed by the family before the breakdown of the marriage.

Bundle evidence: Historic bank statements, credit card statements, lifestyle documentation

Section 25(2)(d): Age & Duration

The age of each party and the duration of the marriage.

Bundle evidence: Marriage certificate, birth certificates

Section 25(2)(e): Physical or Mental Disability

Any physical or mental disability of either of the parties to the marriage.

Bundle evidence: Medical reports, disability benefit records, care needs assessments

Section 25(2)(f): Contributions

Contributions made by each party to the welfare of the family, including looking after the home or caring for the family.

Bundle evidence: Witness statements addressing non-financial contributions, childcare arrangements

Section 25(2)(g): Conduct

Conduct of each party, if that conduct is such that it would be inequitable to disregard it. Note: This is a high threshold that is rarely met in practice.

Bundle evidence: Only in exceptional cases with legal advice

Section 25(2)(h): Loss of Benefit

The value to each party of any benefit which, by reason of the dissolution of the marriage, that party will lose the chance of acquiring. This most commonly relates to pension rights.

Bundle evidence: Pension CEVTs, death-in-service benefits, widow's pension details

Form E Annexure Organisation: Managing Large Bundles

Financial remedy bundles frequently exceed PD27A's recommended 350-page guidance. BundleCreator supports up to 1000 pages. Best practice for managing voluminous disclosure:

•Bank statements: Include summary sheets rather than 12 months of full statements. Highlight significant transactions.
•Schedule of Assets: Use Excel-to-PDF conversion maintaining readability. BundleCreator optimises spreadsheets for court viewing.
•Pension CEVTs: Include key pages (value, transfer options) rather than entire scheme booklets.
•Property valuations: Lead with executive summary; comparables in appendix only if disputed.

Divorce Bundle FAQs

Common questions about financial remedy bundles and Form E preparation

BundleCreator's Divorce (Financial Remedy) template produces an FPR-aligned financial remedy bundle: the Form A application, both parties' Form E financial statements with exhibits, ES1 and ES2 schedules, witness statements, expert valuations (property, pensions, businesses), and authorities. The bundle is paginated continuously, OCR'd, hyperlinked-index, and bookmarked — designed to align with PD27A Chapter 6 (Arabic numbering throughout the bundle for financial remedy proceedings). From £19.99 a month with no per-bundle fee.

FDR (Financial Dispute Resolution) hearings need a focused bundle: the application, both Form Es, an agreed asset schedule (ES1) and earnings/income schedule (ES2), the parties' open offers, and the parties' without-prejudice positions (placed before the FDR judge under FPR 9.17). Recent valuation evidence sits alongside. BundleCreator's Divorce template produces a tight FDR bundle (typically under 200 pages) with the without-prejudice section clearly marked. The FDR judge sees the without-prejudice material; the trial judge cannot, and the FDR judge cannot hear the final hearing (FPR 9.17(2)).

ES1 (Asset Schedule) and ES2 (Earnings/Income Schedule) are required at the First Appointment, FDR, and Final Hearing under the Statement on the Efficient Conduct of Financial Remedy Proceedings. BundleCreator's Divorce template includes ES1 and ES2 templates that auto-generate from the parties' Form Es: capital position (joint and individual), income position, mortgage and debt position, pension Cash Equivalent Transfer Values (CETVs), and business interests. Paginated alongside the bundle's main asset evidence with hyperlinks from each schedule line to the underlying valuation.

BundleCreator's Divorce template is designed for litigants in person on a 7-day trial. Upload your Form E, the other party's Form E (where served), the marriage certificate, asset valuations (mortgage statements, pension CETVs, business accounts), bank statements (last 12-24 months), payslips or self-employment accounts, and your position statement. The tool produces a paginated, OCR'd, hyperlinked-index bundle for the First Appointment, FDR, or Final Hearing — aligned with PD27A Chapter 6.

BundleCreator handles tight financial remedy deadlines: upload the trial-ready Form Es, ES1/ES2 schedules, witness statements with exhibits, expert reports (PODE pension reports, single joint expert valuations), the parties' position statements, and authorities. The bundle is paginated continuously, OCR'd, and bookmarked in 30-60 minutes from upload — ready for the Family Court hearing centre. Typically far quicker than a week's manual assembly.

Maintenance Pending Suit applications under section 22 of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 need: the MPS application notice, witness statement of the applicant explaining urgent need, evidence of income and outgoings (payslips, mortgage statements, council tax, utility bills, childcare costs), evidence of the respondent's resources, and authorities on quantum. BundleCreator's Divorce template handles the MPS bundle structure with paginated evidence and hyperlinked income-and-outgoings analysis.

PODE reports under the Pensions on Divorce Expert standards are central to mid- and high-asset financial remedy cases. BundleCreator's Divorce template has a Section D for expert evidence: the PODE report itself, supporting CETV statements from each scheme, the joint instruction letter, any reply to questions under FPR Part 25, and the report's conclusions on pension sharing methodology. Paginated alongside the asset schedule with hyperlinks from the ES1 to the supporting PODE evidence.

BundleCreator runs on Google Cloud's London region (europe-west2) — primary storage, backups, and processing all in the UK. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Form E disclosures, pension CETVs, business valuations, and offshore asset evidence stay within UK borders, removing UK GDPR Article 44 transfer concerns and aligning with the solicitors' professional duty of confidentiality. Particularly relevant for HNW divorce cases involving confidential business interests or trust structures.

BundleCreator's Divorce template has a Section D for expert evidence: the PODE report itself, supporting CETV statements from each scheme, the joint instruction letter, any reply to questions under FPR Part 25, and the report's conclusions on pension sharing methodology. Paginated alongside the asset schedule with hyperlinks from the ES1 to the supporting PODE evidence.

Is there a UK-hosted bundling tool for HNW divorce — client confidentiality?

BundleCreator runs on Google Cloud's London region (europe-west2) — primary storage, backups, and processing all in the UK. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Form E disclosures, pension CETVs, business valuations, and offshore asset evidence stay within UK borders, removing UK GDPR Article 44 transfer concerns and aligning with the solicitors' professional duty of confidentiality. Particularly relevant for HNW divorce cases involving confidential business interests or trust structures.
