For how long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be completed 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 till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to settle the documentation.

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

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

In the event that your partner is unwilling to settle in a reasonable manner, more complicated divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months and even longer to be resolved.

What is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and contested divorce in Cumming?

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. All other cases are lawfully considered contested divorces.

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

If your divorce consists of concerns such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an option. It is tough to forecast whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
