Cost of Hiring a Pro vs. Doing it Yourself

Divorce can be the single most stressful period in a person's life - that it can be complicated and fraught with pitfalls. It is a difficult time for the entire family-the spouses, the children, and often even the grandparents. Most people need a comprehensive approach that reduces the stress, disruption and cost of divorce. People need to cover all areas of child custody and visitation child support, spousal support, asset distribution, debt allocation, move-always, multi-jurisdictional situations, domestic violence, etc.

Once you and your spouse have made the difficult decision to divorce, you have another decision to make: how to get your divorce paperwork completed. Attorneys charge thousands of dollars for even the most basic uncontested divorce.

However, most people cannot afford an attorney, which can cost between $200 to $300 per hour and demand a retainer of $5,000.

Most people proceed by self-representation because of these high fees or remain married. Some expert estimate 1.2 million couples divorce annually without representation.
