The answer

I analyzed the cost of divorces from the last seven years of my practice. Of course, in many cases I only know what my clients paid. So I doubled that amount because I assume that the other side paid the same. In fact, I know that in many cases, the other side paid much more. For cases that did NOT settle before final trial, the cost to most families (70%), ranged from $40,000 to $90,000. For many, it was $300,000 or more. In other words, if you are unable to settle prior to final trial, you can figure the cost to your family will START at $40,000.
