How long does a common divorce take?

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

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a variety of problems need to be solved, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation phase 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 submitted to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted.

Why doesn't my case qualify?

If your divorce consists of concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is usually not a choice. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
