How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be completed 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, however the judge is required to wait till 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 hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of issues need to be resolved.

A variety of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Chatsworth?

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 case qualify?

If your divorce includes issues 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 alternative. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be handled swiftly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
