From this guide:

We have identified 7 key financial steps to achieve financial peace of mind before, during and after divorce.

1. Get organised

It can be difficult to organise and gain a firm grasp of your finances if you have not been directly responsible for them during your marriage. However, you will be required to complete a detailed financial statement (Form E) when progressing divorce proceedings. Help is at hand from your solicitor, or financial adviser, when completing your Form E. However, the more personally organised you are the less time and hence cost will arise from the involvement of your professional advisers at this stage of proceedings.

It can prove empowering to gain a fuller grasp of your finances during divorce proceedings and this is good preparation for when you assume personal responsibility for your finances post-divorce.
