How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be finalized 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 until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documents.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of concerns require to be fixed.

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

In the event that your partner hesitates to settle in an affordable way, more complicated divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be finalized.

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and contested divorce in Bartow County?

An uncontested divorce case is one where a signed settlement agreement is sent to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted. All other cases are lawfully considered contested divorces.

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 spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not a choice. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be handled promptly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
