For how long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be completed 31 days after the defendant has been served with required paperwork. 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 settle the documentation.

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a final hearing in front of a judge is not required however a number of issues need to be dealt with.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

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

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 spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an alternative. It is challenging to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
