How long does a normal divorce take?

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

If a hearing in front of a judge is not required however a variety of problems need to be fixed, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A variety of cases are dealt with at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

Exactly what is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Cobb County?

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 situation qualify?

If your divorce consists of issues 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 most likely not a choice. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
