The length of time does a typical divorce take?

Georgia law permits a divorce case to be finalized 31 days after the defendant has actually been served with documents. 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.

A case might take anywhere from 2 to 6 months if a hearing in front of a judge is not required but a number of issues require to be fixed.

A variety of cases are dealt with at the mediation stage or through other official negotiations.

Exactly what is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce in Fayette 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.

Why doesn't my case qualify?

If your divorce includes issues such as not agreeing on child custody, non-agreement over alimony or not agreeing on the division of marital property, a flat-fee divorce is most likely not an alternative. It is challenging to anticipate whether your case can be dealt with promptly or if it will take considerably longer to complete.
