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 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 finalize the documents.

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of issues need to be fixed, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

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

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 case doesn't qualify under your flat-fee rates?

If your divorce includes concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an option. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
