How long does a common divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, however the judge is required to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to finalize the documentation.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of problems need to be solved.

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

Exactly what is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Augusta?

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 for your flat-fee package?

If your divorce includes problems 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 most likely not a choice. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
