For how long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be completed 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 settle the paperwork.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of concerns require to be resolved.

A number of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other official negotiations.

If your spouse hesitates to settle in an affordable manner, more complex divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months and even longer to be resolved.

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

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. All other cases are lawfully considered contested divorces.

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

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 property, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an option. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be managed promptly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
