Low-Cost Child Custody Evaluations

In addition to maintaining a general list of qualified independent practicing child custody evaluators, the DRO offers a Low-Cost Child Custody Evaluation program for parties that are not able to afford the regular cost of a child custody evaluation. The parties must meet income requirements and there must be an order specifically indicating the parties are to apply for the Low-Cost Child Custody Evaluation program. The DRO has a standard order for the low-cost service. If a party is qualified the cost of the child custody evaluation is $250. Please contact the DRO for more specific information.
