Bank Statement Review for Divorce and Family Law Cases

Accelerate the review of financial records in divorce proceedings. Organize data, identify relevant activity, and prepare for disclosure with confidence.

Reviewing Financial Records in Divorce Proceedings

Financial disclosure is a cornerstone of divorce litigation. Attorneys must review years of bank statements to establish the marital estate, identify separate property, and ensure full transparency. This process is often manual, prone to error, and expensive for the client. DisclosureAssistant automates the extraction and organization of these records, allowing the legal team to focus on strategy rather than data entry.

Common Transaction Patterns Requiring Review

In family law cases, certain patterns typically require closer examination:

  • Cash Withdrawals: Identifying patterns of cash extraction that may indicate dissipation of assets.
  • Large Transfers: Tracking movement of funds between known and unknown accounts.
  • Lifestyle Expenses: Categorizing spending to support alimony or child support calculations.

How DisclosureAssistant Supports Divorce Case Preparation

By providing a unified, searchable database of all transactions from the uploaded statements, our tool enables counsel to quickly filter and tag items of interest. The ability to set custom thresholds (e.g., "Highlight all transfers over $1,000") ensures that the review is consistent and comprehensive, reducing the risk of missing critical information.

Reviewing Multiple Statements Across Time Periods

Divorce cases often involve 12 to 36 months of bank history across multiple accounts. DisclosureAssistant merges these distinct PDF files into a single chronological timeline, making it easier to spot trends that span across statement cut-off dates.

Outputs Suitable for Disclosure and Attorney Review

The final output is a clean, neutral report that can be shared with co-counsel, opposing counsel (during discovery), or used internally to prepare exhibits. Because the logic is rule-based, the origin of every flagged item is clear and traceable to the source document.
