How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be completed 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 required to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to finalize the documents.

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 concerns need to be dealt with.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation phase 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 filed.

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

If your divorce includes concerns 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 an option. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
