The length of time does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law allows a divorce case to be settled 31 days after the defendant has been served with required paperwork. We can get a settlement agreement sent earlier than that, however the judge is mandated to wait up until the 31st day after service has been perfected on the defendant to complete the documents.

If a hearing in front of a judge is not needed but a variety of concerns have to be solved, a case may take anywhere from 2 to 6 months.

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

If your partner is unwilling to settle in a sensible manner, more complex divorce cases can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months or even longer to be finalized.

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

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 submitted. All other cases are lawfully considered contested divorces.

How come my divorce doesn't qualify for your flat-fee package?

If your divorce consists of issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over spousal support or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is often not an alternative. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be managed swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to complete.
