For how long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, but the judge is required to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documentation.

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

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

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 divorce qualify?

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