It only takes one party to file for divorce. A US divorce is permitted. Many times people are living together while going through a divorce. As far as cost, it depends on the property involved and the issues (such as children, custody of children, physical violence, property overseas, etc. etc. The costs of divorce go anywhere from $500 to millions, depending on what is involved. Feel free to give me a call for free consultation. William S. Stern 248-353-9400
