Virginia Child Support Calculator
Divorce Costs
Use the calculator to estimate the divorce costs for one spouse. The default values are
averages. Consult your attorney and mediator for their estimates for your specific issues.
Then plug those figures into the calculator. Remember that your costs may be much
higher or lower than those estimated by the calculator. We've seen attorney's fees for
contested cases go as high as $100,000 per parent!! The main purpose of this calculator
is to alert you to the variety of costs that can be involved and how they can add up.
All default numbers can be changed by typing over them.
