It can vary depending on firm and location. The firm I work at charges $ 2500 and it includes the cost of the interview, any RFE response, and interview prep. Another firm in the same area, does it for $ 3000. An immigration consultant I know charges $ 3000 and that doesn't even include the cost of the interview. Up and coming attorneys probably charge between $ 1500-$ 2000. I wouldn't go with anyone charging less than $ 1500 - you pay for what you get and sometimes it's worth spending extra for some piece of mind.
Hope this helps

Of course this varies from lawyer to lawyer but perhaps even more important than cost and more difficult to determine is the quality of the lawyer.
I recommend the book 'Fiance and Marriage Visas' by Ilona Bray. You can get it through Barnes and Noble or Amazon. The laws keep changing so get the 3rd edition published in 2005.
It has all of the information required for someone with a foreign fiance(e) or spouse to bring them legally to the US or how to apply for permanent residency if your fiance(e) or spouse is already in the US.
It is a complete guide to all of the forms required, how to fill them out yourself and when you do need to get an attorney.
The one item that is very clear is that if your spouse has been here illegally for more than 6 months then the green card application will be difficult and you do require an experienced lawyer.

You should go around shopping for the best deals or ask your friends if they have contacts and stuff.
