Divorce usually means youall be out not only psychologically, but also monetarily. Itas becoming increasingly difficult for the average Joe to afford a quality lawyer, as rates are climbing. Rates these days for a proper lawyer range anywhere from $75 an hour to a whopping $450 an hour, depending on the extent of service.

Many lawyers mandate a large fee from the get-go ranging from $500-$10,000 based on your financial status. The more stuff, stocks, accounts, etc. that you have, the greater the anon-refundable deposita will be because the lawyer will presume you have a great deal to fight over.
