How long does a normal divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be completed 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with required paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement submitted earlier than that, but the judge is mandated to wait till the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to finalize 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 may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are fixed at the mediation phase or through other official negotiations.

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

An uncontested divorce case is one in which a signed settlement agreement is submitted 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 prices?

If your divorce includes problems such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the dividing of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is usually not an option. It is tough to forecast whether your case can be dealt with quickly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
