How long does a normal divorce take?

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

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a variety of problems have to be dealt with, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are resolved at the mediation phase or through other official settlements.

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

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 filed.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

If your divorce includes problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an option. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with swiftly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
