Family Law Document Automation
Family law document automation for Canadian firms
Divo is family law document automation software for Canadian firms: the same matter data that drives your FCSG, SSAG, and property calculations auto-populates the court forms, financial statements, and schedules your province requires. One workflow, not two.
The double-entry tax on Canadian family lawyers
Every family file requires the same client financial data in two places: a calculation tool to compute support and property, and a court form to disclose to opposing counsel and the bench. Most firms enter it twice.
Divo eliminates the second pass. Once income, expenses, and assets are entered for calculation, the corresponding court forms for your province are one click away — complete with schedules, statutory references, and matter metadata pre-filled.
How form coverage compares
Most document-automation vendors advertise a form count without publishing the list, which makes "does it cover my forms?" impossible to answer before a sales call. Divo publishes its library below. Competitor claims come from each vendor's public pages:
| Tool | Published coverage |
|---|---|
| Divo | Financial-statement forms and calculation schedules for all 13 provinces and territories, generated from the same matter data as the FCSG/SSAG/property calculations. Full library enumerated below. |
| Divorcepath | Advertises 608 court forms across 5 provinces; the form list is available after sign-in rather than published. (source ↗) |
| Clio Draft | Canadian document automation launched April 2026 with an Ontario and BC library described as growing. (source ↗) |
| DivorceMate (via LEAP) | Forms, agreements, and calculations inside LEAP, with the full suite described for Alberta, BC, and Ontario. (source ↗) |
The form library, by jurisdiction
Form library last updated: July 2026
Every province and territory, with the financial-statement forms and the calculation schedules that attach to them. Provincial court rules change; when a form is amended, the library entry is updated and re-dated.

FAQ
Is Divo family law document automation software?
Yes. Divo automates the documents Canadian family-law firms produce most: financial-statement court forms (Ontario Form 13/13.1, BC Form F8, Alberta Notice to Disclose, and provincial equivalents) plus their income, expense, and property schedules. Because the documents are generated from the same matter data that runs your FCSG and SSAG calculations, there's no re-keying — you enter figures once and the forms populate themselves for lawyer review.
Which Canadian family court forms does Divo generate?
Divo auto-populates the financial-statement forms and supporting schedules that every Canadian family-law jurisdiction requires: Ontario Form 13 / 13.1, BC Form F8, Alberta Notice to Disclose (FL-17), Manitoba/Saskatchewan financial statements, and the equivalent forms in NS, NB, NL, PEI, and the three territories. The forms are generated from matter data already entered for calculations.
Are the generated forms accepted in court?
Forms follow the format prescribed by each province's family rules. Lawyers retain responsibility for verifying disclosure accuracy and signing — Divo prepares the document; the lawyer reviews and files it.
Do generated forms include the schedules?
Yes. Income schedules (T4, RL-1, self-employment, business income), expense schedules (Section 7 special expenses, parenting time costs), and property schedules (NFP in ON/PE, excluded property in BC, family property in AB and others) are generated as integrated attachments.
Can I edit the form after Divo generates it?
Yes. Divo produces Word and PDF outputs. Word versions are fully editable for lawyer-side adjustments before filing. Edits made in the form are not synced back — the matter file in Divo remains the source of truth for calculations.
How does this compare to drafting in Word from scratch?
Most firms report financial-statement drafting takes 30–60 minutes per matter manually. Auto-population from a Divo matter typically lands the form 80–95% complete in under a minute. The remaining time is lawyer review.
