A true uncontested divorce exists when the parties agree on all issues in the case prior to the Attorney beginning work. The attorney then boils down the agreement to the appropriate settlement agreements, helps the client complete mandatory affidavits and financials, files the lawsuit, and brings the client to Court to resolve the hearing.
The fee detailed above is an estimate and may vary depending upon your unique situation. When you meet with an attorney from Denmon & Denmon you will be provided with an exact fee that will not change during the course of our representation of you.

The Fee range above covers all the costs necessary in your contested divorce case when it is not necessary to set the case for trial and litigate the final result with the Judge. This is appropriate in 85% of all cases.
The Fees below show the range of costs if your case cannot be resolve by agreement and must go to trial. If a flat fee case, the fees are broken into three different stages. If the case turns from the trial path and settlement is reached, only fees paid to that point will be due
Initiation Phase: These fees estimate the costs after settlement has failed and tactical litigation begins. This includes pretrial motion practice to resolve temporary matters and additional discovery needed
Trial Preparation: These fees are the costs to prepare your particular trial, including preparing and interviewing witnesses, taking depositions of the witnesses, preparing and deposing experts when appropriate.
Trial Phase:These are the fees associated with trying the case in front of a Judge. Trials can range in length from a single day to weeks, depending on the issues that the Judge needs to resolve.
- Initiation of Litigation: $7,000-$12,000
- Trial Preparation Fees: $8,000-$15,000
- Trial Fees:
- Alimony: $7,500-$10,000
- Property Distribution: $6,000-$10,000
- Child Custody Trial: $8,000-$15,000
- Child Support trial: $5,000-$10,000
Note: In essence, the questions on the left column match up with the different trial fees on the right column. So for example, if one spouse is dependant on the other spouse, then it will be an alimony case. If the parties have children, child custody and support are issues.
If there is a business, then the settlement phase can go up between 5K (low end) and 15K (high end).
