How long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with paperwork. 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 documentation.

A case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of issues need to be dealt with.

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

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 sent to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted.

Why doesn't my case qualify?

If your divorce consists of concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital items, a flat-fee divorce is often not an option. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be handled quickly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
