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 paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, however the judge is mandated to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the paperwork.

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of concerns have to be resolved, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation stage 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 sent to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted.

How come my situation doesn't qualify for your flat-fee package?

If your divorce includes problems 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 usually not an option. It is challenging to anticipate whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take considerably longer to finish.
