For how long does a typical divorce take?

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

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

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

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

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.

Why doesn't my divorce qualify?

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 often not an option. It is challenging to forecast whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
