Hourly Rates
Most attorneys bill by the hour. And according to nolo.com, the national
average hourly fee charged by divorce lawyers is $250. This is of course just
the average, and it is not uncommon to find those charging from as little as $50
per hour to even more than $400. However, $250 is the most likely fee to be
charged. For this amount, you can get full representation in which the attorney
handles every aspect of the case, partial representation where the lawyer only
manages to a few aspects like child custody or alimony, or consultation only. So
it is important to know beforehand what you will be getting for the hourly fee
you are charged.
