Bench + Divorce Proceedings: Complete Workflow
Preparing for divorce proceedings and using Bench? Divorce financial disclosure (Form E) requires detailed bank statement analysis. Solicitors and clients need to review months of transactions to identify assets and spending. BankScan AI bridges the gap between your bank's PDF statements and Bench's import feature.
BankScan AI → Bench for Divorce Proceedings
Convert bank statement PDFs to CSV formatted for Bench import. Convert bank statements to searchable Excel spreadsheets for Form E preparation, asset tracing, and financial disclosure in divorce proceedings.
How It Works
Upload your bank statement PDF
Supports all major banks. Upload 12 months minimum, often 2-3 years for asset tracing and establishing spending patterns during the marriage of statements.
AI formats for Bench
Output as CSV with Date, Description, Amount — Bench bookkeepers handle column mapping during their review process — dates in MM/DD/YYYY.
Import and use for divorce proceedings
Upload into Bench and use the reconciled data for divorce proceedings.
Supported Banks
BankScan AI works with all major UK and US banks, including:
Bench + Divorce Proceedings Features
- Bench ready — Output formatted as CSV matching Bench's expected column structure
- Smart integration — Bench bookkeepers can use BankScan AI's pre-structured data to speed up categorisation, reducing the typical 5-day turnaround to 1-2 days for historical catch-up bookkeeping.
- Built for Divorce Proceedings — Convert bank statements to searchable Excel spreadsheets for Form E preparation, asset tracing, and financial disclosure in divorce proceedings.
Import for Divorce Proceedings into Bench
After converting your bank statements for divorce proceedings:
- Share BankScan AI's converted CSV files with your Bench bookkeeper via the Bench portal
- They import the data into your Bench account for categorisation and reconciliation
Common Import Issues
Bench's human bookkeepers handle most import issues. Main challenge is when bank feeds disconnect — BankScan AI serves as the backup data source for gap periods.
Bench Import for Divorce Proceedings
Form E must be filed by the court deadline, typically 35 days after the directions order; late disclosure can result in adverse cost orders
