A number of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an alternative. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
