Calculators for divorce coaches and family mediators

Two working calculators for the two numbers that quietly decide whether a separation practice holds together, your real hourly rate and your real deadline load.

Separation work goes wrong on arithmetic more often than on skill. A flat package looks healthy until you count the unscheduled calls at nine at night and the hours spent chasing a payroll statement that never arrives. A caseload looks manageable until you total the minutes spent checking dates across twelve open files.

Both calculators below run in your browser, keep nothing and ask for nothing. Put in your own numbers, not tidy ones. The point is to see the gap between what you think an engagement pays and what it pays after the document chasing is counted, and to know the caseload your admin hours can actually carry before a deadline slips.

Why these two calculators are open to anyone

Most divorce coaches and mediators do this arithmetic on the back of an intake form, usually after the package price has already been quoted. You divide a flat fee by the sessions you planned to run, leave out the call the night before the mediation and the hour spent renaming bank statements, and the rate you believe you charge sits comfortably above the rate you actually get. The deadline arithmetic is worse, because nobody totals four small checks a month across twelve open separations until a disclosure window closes on one of them and you find out the hard way.

So both calculators run in your browser with nothing asked of you but honest figures. No account, no email, nothing stored anywhere. They are worth something on their own even if you never open a binder: the package number tells you whether to raise the fee or write a tighter scope, and the load number tells you how many active separations your admin hours can genuinely track before a check gets skipped. Take the answers into your own spreadsheet and nobody here will know you were here.

You have the number, now the lever

Whichever calculator you just ran, the lever it points at is the same one: fewer minutes per deadline check and fewer scattered document chases across your open files. That is the entire job the binder does for a separation practice. Book a demo and we will put your own figures back through it, with one deadline page and an ordered disclosure list in place, to see where the hours actually land.
