Judging by incoming searches to this site today, some practitioners are struggling to find the new FAS form to be used following the implementation of the new single family court. It doesn’t appear to be on the LAA website, but it can be found here, in the HMCTS form finder section of the MoJ website.

Is the new FAS form for 31/7/2014 available yet?
I haven’t seen a version. But the link in the post (and this one) is to the current forms list on the HMCTS site, so hopefully when the form changes it will automatically appear there
Thanks Simon
See now our latest post on this: https://legalaidhandbook.com/2014/07/30/new-advocates-attendance-form-from-31-july-2014/
What has changed – it looks exactly like the one we are already using.
Nothing yet – it doesn’t change until the 31st
All the forms i can find are still date stamped 06/14, surely the new one should be either 07/14 or 08/14??
That is the new one. Don’t know why it has that stamp!
