For how long does a common divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement sent 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 documents.

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

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

On the occasion that your partner is unwilling to settle in a reasonable manner, more intricate divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or perhaps longer to be finalized.

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

An uncontested divorce case is one where a signed settlement agreement is sent to the clerk's office at the time the complaint for divorce is submitted. All other cases are legally considered contested divorces.

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

If your divorce consists of issues 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 alternative. It is hard to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take significantly longer to finish.
