The length of time does a typical divorce take?

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

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

A variety of cases are fixed at the mediation stage or through other official settlements.

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

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 situation doesn't qualify under your flat-fee package?

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 alternative. It is hard to forecast whether your case can be handled swiftly or if it will take substantially longer to finish.
