For how long does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has 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 needed however a variety of issues need to be solved, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

A number of cases are solved at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

Exactly what is the distinction between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Douglasville?

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 under your flat-fee package?

If your divorce consists of issues 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 often not an alternative. It is difficult to anticipate whether your case can be managed quickly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
