For how long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows 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 mandated to wait up until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to complete the documents.

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 concerns need to be fixed.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

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.

Why doesn't my situation qualify?

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an alternative. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be handled promptly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
