How Our Divorce Cost Calculator Works
We use state-specific data and your personal circumstances to estimate your divorce costs.
Select Your State
Each state has different filing fees, average attorney rates, waiting periods, and property division rules. We auto-detect your state via geolocation or you can select manually.
Enter Your Details
Tell us about your divorce type (contested vs. uncontested), whether children are involved, and if you're planning mediation. These factors significantly affect costs.
Specify Assets
Your combined income and total marital assets affect attorney complexity and costs. Property division, prenups, and high-asset situations all factor into the estimate.
Get Your Estimate
We calculate a cost range based on state data, complexity multipliers, and national averages. The estimate includes filing fees, attorney fees, mediation, custody evaluations, and property appraisals as applicable.
Our estimates are based on publicly available data including state court filing fees, legal industry attorney rate surveys, and common cost patterns. Actual costs vary. This is not legal advice.
