Hi Cali
I don't know about mediation in the U.S but in canada we have 6 free sessions.
Usually cost a total of 188$ each in mediation for legal papers to divorce and that's it.

My XW pulled out on the last day. Ended up serving me with lawyers papers and it cost my over 6k

Cost her even more and she got less than what she was going to get in mediation. It's nuts

Sorry your STBX did the same. I think they feel better having someone in their corner fighting for what they are ENTITLED to and not really looking at the costs and added stress.

I know you will end out on top either way.
