Better Submissions, Less Administration
When litigants use Splitifi, documents arrive at the Family Court properly formatted, complete, and compliant with Family Procedure Rules — reducing the administrative burden on court staff and accelerating case progression.
Challenges Court Staff Face Daily
Administrative burden created by poorly prepared submissions reduces court efficiency
Incomplete Applications
Incomplete financial remedy applications and missing Form E attachments create repeated follow-up cycles, slowing case progression and burdening case administrators with avoidable correspondence.
Non-Compliant Documents
Submissions that fail to comply with Family Procedure Rules 2010 require rejection and resubmission, consuming administrative time and delaying hearing lists across the Family Court.
Fee Calculation Errors
Incorrect court fee calculations — including the £593 divorce application fee and £53 consent order fee — require manual intervention and slow the issue of proceedings.
Digital Court Transition
As HMCTS expands the Digital Family Court and online filing, court staff face the dual challenge of managing paper and electronic submissions alongside new digital case management workflows.
How Splitifi Improves Court Administration
Better prepared litigants mean more efficient court operations
Standardised Documentation
Litigants using Splitifi submit properly formatted applications that comply with the Family Procedure Rules and Practice Directions, reducing rejection rates significantly.
Completeness Verification
Automated checklists confirm that all required attachments — Form E, statements of issues, questionnaires — are included before submission reaches the court counter or e-filing portal.
Reduced Processing Time
Well-prepared, complete applications reduce the administrative burden on court staff, enabling faster case progression from issue through to First Directions Appointment (FDA).
Court Rule Compliance
Splitifi validates that procedural requirements are met including MIAM certificates (or exemptions), service timelines, and FPR Part 9 financial remedy requirements.
