Affordable Divorce in Houston — Done Right

Greater Houston is one of the most expensive metro areas in Texas for contested divorce litigation — attorney fees easily exceed $15,000–$30,000 per side before a case ever reaches trial. For couples who have already agreed on the key issues, that cost is entirely avoidable.

2500Divorce.com, operated by Fritz & Phillips, P.C., provides flat-fee uncontested divorce for Houston and Harris County families starting at $2,500. Our licensed Texas attorneys handle every document, every filing, and every court step — the same legal result you'd get from a high-retainer engagement, at a fraction of the cost. The difference is we don't charge for conflict that doesn't exist.

Jessica Fritz and Keith Phillips co-founded this service specifically to give Houston-area families access to real legal representation at a price that makes sense when both spouses already agree.
