How long does a common divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has been served with required paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, but the judge is mandated to wait until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to complete the documentation.

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of issues need to be fixed, a case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Alpharetta?

An uncontested divorce case is one in which a signed settlement agreement is sent to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is filed.

How come my case doesn't qualify under your flat-fee prices?

If your divorce consists of problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an option. It is tough to forecast whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
