The cost of a dissolution depends on the attorney you hire. Some may do them for a flat fee. Others do them on an hourly fee basis. I personally do dissolutions on an hourly fee basis. The cost can approximately range from $1000 to $2000 depending on how many meetings/discussions need to be had between you and your spouse to resolve all pending issues (property division, allocation of parental rights, etc.). If the two of you can agree to everything quickly and there are not a lot of issues, then drafting the documents will take less time. The opposite is true if an agreement cannot be struck quickly or if there are more complicated property division or parental rights issues. Please feel free to contact me to discuss further.
