How long does a normal divorce take?

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

If a hearing in front of a judge is not required but a variety of concerns have to be dealt with, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other formal settlements.

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 submitted to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted.

How come my divorce doesn't qualify under your flat-fee rates?

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an option. It is tough to forecast whether your case can be dealt with swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
