The court forms to start your claim
Most of the time you'll need to fill out a form called a Notice of Family Claim, Form F3.
In certain, relatively uncommon circumstances , a family law proceeding is started with a Petition, Form F73. (Petitions are used when someone is asking for the return of a child under the Hague Convention on child abduction, and other orders that can be dealt with in a single hearing.)
Form F3 is available online. See the [[Supreme Court Forms (Family Law)|Supreme Court Forms]] section. The court <span class="noglossary">will</span> not provide you with a guide to filling this form out, so you must be as precise and accurate as possible.
