The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

If a final hearing in front of a judge is not required but a variety of issues need to be fixed, a case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

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

What is the distinction 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 submitted.

Why doesn't my situation qualify?

If your divorce includes concerns 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 usually not an option. It is challenging to forecast whether your case can be dealt with swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
