Uncontested is @ $1k. If contested, $5k +, more like $10k - $20k.

All attorneys give one hour free consultation (the first hour), best is to interview several attorneys, find out which one she feels best with.

Fees varies from $150 to $250 per hour.

If kids are involved it can get nasty.

Assets are pretty much split in half.

Good luck!

Kewl... "The Wife" is a 4th year in NYC, med size firm, and we are just looking into lateral salaries here. We just had lunch with one of the partners and it looks like we will be taking a pretty big hit if she jumps in to a local firm.:shifty
