How long does a common divorce take?

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

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a number of issues need to be solved.

A variety of cases are resolved at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

What is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Columbus?

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 includes problems 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 option. It is tough to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
