How long does a common divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be completed 31 days after the defendant has been served with documents. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, however 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 final hearing in front of a judge is not needed however a number of problems need to be dealt with.

A number of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other formal negotiations.

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

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 divorce 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 items, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an option. It is difficult to forecast whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take significantly longer to complete.
