Frequently asked questions

How much does divorce mediation cost?
Most divorce mediation falls between $1,206 and $4,463, with a typical figure near $2,320 per job.

The honest answer is that it depends on the specifics. Compare the written scope first, then the price. The answer can shift with the Phoenix market, so check locally.
Is Divorce Mediation cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in Phoenix.
How many quotes should I get for divorce mediation?
Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. Local providers in Phoenix can confirm how that applies to your area.
