We know that time is precious for our members and that we are more likely to retain information when it’s presented in small chunks.
Each session is designed to introduce fresh perspectives and drive lasting behaviour change.
Session 5 overview – Express Financial Remedy Procedure Pilot
This one-hour session will look at the Express Financial Remedy Procedure Pilot which came into force on 7 April 2025: considering the policy arguments in favour of the pilot; a step-by-step explanation of how it will work in practice; and sharing any early observations on the operation of the pilot.
What you’ll learn
- The aims and objectives of the Express Financial Remedy Procedure Pilot
- How the pilot was developed
- The procedural steps involved in a pilot case
- What to do if a pilot case is no longer considered eligible
Who is this for?
This one-hour session is ideal for family solicitors who:
- Want to understand how a pilot case will operate in practice, either because they have cases in one of the pilot financial remedy court zones or in anticipation of expansion of the express financial remedy procedure
- Need guidance on what will be expected in terms of disclosure and expert evidence in a pilot case
- Want to know whether there are any lessons to be learned from the first few weeks of the pilot in operation
