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

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation phase or through other formal negotiations.

What is the difference 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.

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

If your divorce includes problems 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 often not an alternative. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
