Does anyone know an approximate cost for divorce mediation in Ct? Also, how is it usually paid-reatiners fee, balances.
Usually you need to file for divorce first – them mediation ensues if both parties can not come to a settlement on their own terms and they need a neutral third party to decide for them.
Here is a link to mediation for CT:

The thing is I can’t give you a concrete answer for costs because it will vary by agency/what agency you use and how quickly the terms of the final are agreed upon/reached. Usually it is paid like lawyers are – retainers are used or if you are in a hard place financially payment plans can be worked out. Sometimes the ex spouses can split the cost of mediation as well.
Good luck.
