The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

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

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

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Buford?

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 divorce doesn't qualify under your flat-fee package?

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an alternative. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
