Practice and procedure

The Family Court deals with all family cases other than a small number of case types over which the High Court retains exclusive jurisdiction. See Practice Note: The single Family Court.

The Financial Remedies Court is a subsidiary structure within the Family Court and is organised into regional financial remedy courts and local hearing venues. In order to increase efficiency and establish best practice in the Financial Remedies Court, the Family Procedure Rules 2010 (FPR 2010), SI 2010/2955 are complemented by:

  1. statement on the efficient conduct of financial remedy hearings allocated to a High Court judge whether sitting at the Royal Courts of Justice or elsewhere (2016)

  2. statement on the efficient conduct of financial remedy hearings in the Financial Remedies Court below High Court judge level (2022), issued alongside a Primary Principles document and templates for a composite case summary and schedule of assets and income

See Practice Notes: The Financial Remedies Court, Financial Remedies Court (FRC) toolkit, Financial remedy proceedings allocated below High Court judge level and Financial remedy proceedings allocated to a High Court judge.
